Looks like one of those beautiful crisp and clear days. I love the blue reflections coming from the fence.

This is awesome! I love these places with the white fences. The shadow really adds to the whole thing.

Bob, this is a beautiful picture. I love the color, light, and composition. I didn't think this was what was meant by the challenge subject after I read up on Wabi-Sabi. I would have scored it higher in a Free Study or landscape challenge.

I had a hard time with scenery shots in this challenge - I tend to think pretty landscapes are always pretty and it's not hard to find beauty in them. But that's just me. What I do like about this is the shadow of the fence and how it leads you to the corner, moreso than the actual fence.

It's as if this is someone's zen sandbox, but drawn with with shadows. I especially like the mysterious destination.

Nice and crisp. I think you intentionally centered this. Maybe a tighter crop would have had more wow factor. I like the stark shadows on the snow, though the houses distract a little from the rest of the scene. I'm really divided on this one.

I think there isn't much for the eye to focus on.. maybe getting the bend of the fence would have made the picture more interesting..

Simple and nice. Finally someone that undeerstands that the shadows in snow on a sunny day are BLUE. I had an argument about that once. Glad you agree :)

Nice lines, pristine snow... I live in this sort of a place so I know how splendid those trees were a month and a half ago. There's something really clean and elegantly beautiful about this.

An everyday scene but beautiful. Well done.
