Lovely winter shot with simplicity and mood.  I don't know why, but my eye wishes for a little more of the fence on the left, but keeping the off-center position of the gateway.  A little more light on this portion of the image would help as well.  A very minor suggestion for a fine photograph.

a gorgeous gothic, Alexander, brimming with secrets and stories! :-} dp

Hi Alexander,

I think that this is a superb image.  The slight colour cast over the image really makes it stand out from many of the other snow scenes.  

My only suggested improvement would be that an image as classic as this might stand out even more if it had a square crop.   However, given the position of the tree and the gate this really isn't possible without losing one of the essential elements.  The only potential solution would have been to have taken a slightly wider exposure in order to include more sky, and then cropped it down.  But then it is very easy for any of us to be wise after the event: particularly when we weren't there in the moment.

Overall, it really is a fantastic shot.  Well done.

Best Regards

Mark
