This is a perfect close-up, John! What a great eye you have. Icy snow and warm pine needles and bark compliment each other and look very attractive together. I can feel the warmth of the sun rays. Superb! #11664632

Dang John, it looks like you had to lay on your belly to get this shot. What makes it so neat is the layer of ice on the top and bottom, then the space in between where we see the branch and the grass. That in itself is beautiful but now you add the colors, the lighting, the incredible details, the amazing textures and you get this gorgeous look at winter. Beautifully presented John. #11664677
