I thought there might be a practical reason you hadn't, but thought that I'd share all my thoughts. I saw the alternate with the Euro, but it seemed to small in the scene to really have much of an impact, hence why I liked this one.
As for the light- it works fine here. I guess you could've boosted your whites via curves so that the snow was closer to white, but it's not a huge deal and a preference thing. As is, I think the off-white snow works well with the general feel. |

spatula... thanks i couldnt get to the other snow and only managed to get to the snow i did with a one quick step in the water theory the other side was on the main flow and running fast and obviously didnt want a few mile hike back with wet feet in snow,
it was a dull day and the colour int he shade were flat hence the bw had the same one with a paper euro note on the rock as well,

This is a nice photo and one I personally enjoyed more than several studio shots that finished above this. |

Saw your post in the forums-
I prefer this to your alternates.
I didn't vote on this challenge, but I think it is a more interesting combination of the elements than many others on here. If I were taking this, I'd consider doing scissors in all the snow in the scene, but that's just me.
As far as discussing my thoughts on your actual image-
I like it. The snow seems a little underexposed, but fits with the overall toning. I'd vote it a 6, but I normally vote a bit lower than most on here. My voting sorta goes like this 5=ho hum but nothing that really flaws it outright 6= well developed idea or exceptionally captured boring entry 7= well developed idea that engages me 8=wow, makes instant impression 9=nothing I can really think of that would improve the shot 10=I want it on my wall.
So, while I think you had a good idea, and one which was original, it didn't particularly engage me personally, which is what separates any 6 from higher scores for me. Just a personal thing I guess, for me. |

i looked at some of the ones that finished high and think was it worth hiking rd the country side have a genuinely unique idea or should i have just rolled some paper and stuck a flash at the bottom of it, whats the point!! creativity = mediocrity copying somehting done to death on here = a good score
i'm actually pissed off about this score, id like to know why all the 1,2,34's ? come ppl im a big boy hit me with some criticism |

I'm surprised that this isn't in the Top Ten. |
