Just a picture from a morning walk. We had snow over the last couple of days and I liked how it was just kind of hanging on to the branches. Plus the pinecone is cute :)

Beautiful image with lovely colours. And the pinecone is the icing on the cake, lovely.

Hehe, if I was with you when you were taking this shot I would have been tempted to shake the branch.

The blue background contrasts nicely with the leave. Nice find.

Beautiful and serene image. Just a moment in your world wonderfully captured. The blue bg due f/2.0 offsets the greens perfectly.

I like it when someone says "just" a picture as if. Then we find so much to enjoy. And then the snow as a delicate afterthought.

Oh! Love the green, blue and the pinecone.
Glad it's you that has the snow and not me!
So picturesque in pictures.

The pinecone is vVERY cute :) I love the colors and crisp detail in this one. I would be tempted to cheat a little: crop square losing only from left and then clone the pretty, light mottled blue background over the bits of branch that remain.

Ahh, wow, so clear, such beautiful colour! I like the snow on the branches. Beautiful.

I like how the branch is framed by the shadow. That brings the focus right to the branch and pinecone.

You know this shot is so perfect that it almost looks like it isn't a photograph - and I mean that in the nicest way possible. Every part of the photo is so well done. The pine-cone is very cute and it heralding the coming of spring. The blue sky also is perfect as it makes everything pop - the colors are so true and your ability to get everything is such crisp focus at an Aperture of 2.0 is amazing.
The snow is the crowing glory - in some places it looks like it's part of the sky - some white puffy clouds and then you look again and see that it's the light puffy snow that is keeping the branches company.
A shot to be very proud of.

Good composition with the branches Creating tension in the frame, and the pinecone almost perfectly on the rule of thirds.

I like the POV. The snow on the branches from the underside is nice. I like the DOF and how there is a slight glow to the blue color in the photo.

Great capture. The pinecone caught my eye first then I noticed the snow. It is really neat how the snow is just sitting on top of the branches and the pinecone is facing you. The blue bokeh adds some very nice color.

I like the way the snow is sitting on the tops of the branches with the light hitting in parts. great POV

Pine cone is definitely cute. Almost like a rosebud (nevermind it's upside down, brown and surrounded by pine needles.). Heehee. I love the lighting on the needles and snow bt wished for a little more on the cone.

P.S. love the blue background.
