| Well... That's quite a snow for Texas! This photo doesn't really have any glaring problems, but it isn't as strong as many of the other submissions. It IS rather understated and serene which doesn't help it stand out from the crowd. I really like the sidewalk, but it just isn't very obvious in B&W. I actually think that you could move a little, showing more of the sidewalk, and make it a stronger element in the image. I'm still not sure that I like this in black and white. Did you take it in color and then convert it? B&W can often add drama to a landscape, but IMO it makes this photo seem a little too lifeless and blah. Since you obviously have ready access to this site, I would suggest going back in spring, summer (maybe even during a rain shower), and fall to take the same shot from the same spot. Putting them side by side and showing how much it changes would be very interesting. |

| very well composed shot...the undulating walk is in great contrast to the starkness of the trees and day. Well done in grayscale. |

| My first impression was that this was a very grainy image, then on closer look I see just a lot of wonderful texture. Why did you choose monochrime, I wonder how this looked in color? |

| This is an excellent black and white... the curvature of the sidewalk really makes this image work nicely. That provides the 'single' element of attention that I belive is required to make a nice landscape photo... great work :) - setzler |

| Excellent composition on this photo! I love the way the lines of the sidewalk and the line of the creek cross paths, that is where your eye is drawn to. I think this might have been cooler with just slightly more contrast but it's a really neat photo. I like your perspective of looking down rather then up... it looks like a very peaceful walk! You get a 9 from me! Nice job and good luck! |

| I don't really like this in black and white as there is too much grey and not enough contrast. This would be a great spot in summer (of course) because then the path would stand out more and lead the eye back into the shot. |

| I think if you could have framed this so that the sidewalk entered at the bottom and wove through the picture it would have been really effective. |

BW was a good choice for this one... I might have shot from an angle where the sidewalk was less presented.
