Beautiful boughs,
bent by wind.

Great relevance, but something here doesn't work so well. I can't quite say what it is exactly, but I suspect it has to do with the tree line on the horizon, that make the shot look a bit too "ordinary". I would have prefered to get a bit closer and shoot from below, in order to get only sky behind the tree.

striking shot with the crisp snow and blue sky - high scores from me.

On the morning I took this it was -20 F and a fog was just lifting, there had been a hoarfrost over the night which left 1/2" shards of ice on everything, it was very surreal imagery and this shot reflected the moment really well. Yes the composition could have been different but unfortunately I didn't get it then.

that tree is wonderful. I wish it were a lone tree, but this is nice.

mysight said 523 days ago:

You were outside in minus twenty degree weather??!

mtmartini said 523 days ago:

Oh yeah, it took 20 minutes for my camera to defrost after I came back inside. -20 is not so bad when you are dressed properly and there is no wind. :-)

About twenty years ago it hit ten above zero here.
