 Thank you for the wonderful comments.

On the way to the library on the day this was due I made a detour to the reservoir to see what this nice row of trees was doing.

Snowing in every direction, flakes as large as your eyes, landing as puddles. What a scene.

Editing involved a crop, a WB adjustment to "shade" in LR, and some vigorous healing brush work to remove all the water spots that were unionizing on my front element.

This was a wonderful challenge where the creativity really kicked down the door, and I really needed it.

Great lines with the strong verticals crisscrossed in that haphazard way by the diagonals of the blowing snow. Congratulations on the top ten.

This looks like a scene from 'The Road'.

I love this and I think it would look good hanging in a Scandinavian lodge.
