Very nice soft pink cloud against the jagged mountain.  I'm often a fan of lots of foreground, but I think there might be a bit too much here.  I know you added the closest drifts for texture, and the grasses match the mountain's color, but there's something that just feels slightly annoying.  Maybe it's because the drifts are pointing the wrong way-- but obviously there was nothing you could have done about that!  Regards, Jeff

Both are aesthetically pleasing to view, and although essentially the same perspective and view the different time and prevailing light make a vast difference to the mood of the image. My personal preference is this one, as the shadows add considerably to the textures of the snow.

Sincere Compliments

Another wonderful photo! Like Jeff, however, even though I am a fan of the effect that a lot of foreground can have on a photo, here I find it a bit much. I find my eye getting "stuck" on the grass and the shapes in the foreground and ignoring the background. There is a wonderful path there that could have been used to guide the view to the mountain and the fantastic pink clouds in the background, but here it just gets lost a bit because the connection is not strong enough. However, as I said at the very beginning, it is still a wonderful photo!
