Hi pellemannen,
Nice image, I think i would have taken the twigges out of the image they are just a little distracting and as noted a lower prosective would have been nice. I am also left with the feeling that something is missing here, a train off in the distance maybe ?. I would like to see this again with fresh fallen snow, just a thought :).

to few tonal variations, and the photo lacks interest\mood

Nicely done ... how would it have looked if you had shot from a lower point of view ?

love it. to the point

Great shot, I believe it could have been even better taken from a lower view point.

You could usefully have brought the black point up in this - the lack of it gives it a washed-out feeling. Perhaps this is too obvious a subject, with little to bring it out from the mass of other similar images.

What would we do without railroad tracks? Your photo is OK and desaturation helps but I guess I have seen (and taken) too many of them. Middle of the tracks five.

I would increase the contrast here, is is just a bit flat.

I would have preferred a lower angle

This image would have benefitted from stronger contrast in my opinion.
