I like this concept a lot but I think it could have been much better if the trees were a third of the image, or no foreground only the trees and sky.....

This is a great shot, Tony. Congrats! Strange choice of lens for this shot?

OK, the blog explains the lens - cool series!

Love the clouds. Foreground is a bit distracting. Would've given it a much higher rating with only the trees and sky in the photo.

Wow! What an amazing sky, great example of a negitive image. The trees do look as if covered by snow, well done and good luck. 8

Very eerie, I love that sky, not so much love for the WHITE foreground, wish it had some texture to it. 6 from me.

The idea with the white trees is great, but I find the clouds a little distracting. I know that you couldn't just take them away, but maybe you could have cropped tighter and given more room to the trees?

deep blue color is amazing.

I think I would like about a 1/4 inch of the 'snow' cropped off the bottom.

Freezing cold looking... very nice...

That white is soooo vibrant and really stands out against the blue. Looks very infrared. Quite tranquil.
