Love the contrast between the colour of the subject and the black & white of the background.

I like the scene, but the mid-day lighting (I assume) is too harsh. I know that in situations like this very often you donĂ¢€™t have a choice. 7

I like it. I can find sadness in this without the title. Good luck.

I would say, yes, the sky was blown out. I wouldn't say that's a complete problem though. The overall scene, however, is a little on the bright side. Of course your subject is properly exposed but everything else is a little over exposed. Judging from the shadow it appears you were shooting into the sun. If possible I would shoot from the other direction so you have the sun behind you.

Is that ice? very neat image, love the strong horizontal nature of the frozen bits, and how the background feels like impending doom. I wish the tree wasn't so orange, it'd look awesome in a nice creamy bluegreen tone.
