Cool Wondering how you felt about this.

I am thinking about blowing this picture up and framing it.I put it out here to see what I could do better with it or what looks good about it. Thanks a lot.
Snowy day

Thanks,
Terry

I think it looks quite nice the way it is Terry. I'm interested to hear what others think.

This is a lovely shot, I think it would look good blown up. I like the different diagonal lines in the scene, gives it a good sense of depth. Snow is lovely and crisp but not blown out.
Thanks for sharing.

Yep exposure is spot on which (I've heard) is very tough with snowscapes. A nice calming shot, my dad has a similar one that looks great blown up and on the office wall.

Exposure is great, and it's certainly a nice scene with the trees and fence line.

One thing I struggle with each time out is my composition and balance. Here, I feel like there's a big empty space in the middle. What would happen if you walked toward just to the right of that biggest tree, and arranged your comp so that that tree remained on the right side, and you used the fence as a leading line towards that second tree? Just a thought.

I agree, your exposure is spot on, and I don't see anyway that you could crop the image that would make it any better. I think you did a great job with this image.

I agree it's a very nice scene that is well exposed. The only thing that bugs me is that I can't identify a subject in the shot. Is it the fence, the trees, or the sky? My eye wanders from tree to tree and doesn't really settle on anything. A lot of the landscape submissions have a beautiful scene, but lack that compelling subject that draws your eye. I started a thread in the landscape technique section because of that.
