Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Hi Dave - that just looks cold !!! :shock: (wish we had a chattering teeth emoticon ;)LOL
Just my opinion, but the road verge in the bottom left hand corner keeps dragging my attention away from the rest of the photo - if you crop it just above this section (I know it turns into a pano), it leads your eye along the road and into the distance - but as I said, just my opinion.
I should imagine that shooting snow would be bloody hard (I've never seen it LOL), but I reckon you did a bloody good job :)

In #2, the snow is a little too grey, probably because the white snow dominates the shot, and the metering is thinking middle grey. You need to give it a bit more +EV.

I was up at 7 am digging the car out of the snow at Guthega this morning. Love the stuff (most of the time) :lol:
