I can see where the subject of this may be interesting to the photographer - but photographically speaking, nothing draws me to this photo - it's just a snapshot.

Well it is a nice enough snow photo but to be honest it kind of looks like a quick snap. As snow photos go it is not all that interesting, at least not to me.

Ah yes, the beauty of first snow. Or third or fourth. ;) This really doesn't tell me anything remarkible about the snow this day. What was it that drew you out to shoot it? First snow? A big fat flake that spaltted against the window? Youve successfully documented the snow. Now take me the next step- snow me, I mean show me something special about the snow. That's part of what differentiates a snapshot from a "artistic" shot.

your timing is impeccable! hope you don't get hit with any 'blizzard-backlash' voting ;-)
if this image isn't getting the scores or comments you wanted, please don't take it personally; just consider it a good starting place for the rest of the year. good luck in this and the challenges yet to come!

From someone who sees this all winter, it's not terribly interesting.

A bit too ordinary to have any impact on me, sorry. Also, the sky and roof are blown out and blend together.

Where was this taken? Springtime snow is not a surprise hee in Vermont.
