Some sort of composition

An excellent image.  I like the strong diagonals, the rim light on the figure, and of course the magnificent shadow. Though no change is needed, I would be curious to see a free crop just at the last tall pole on the right.  Delighted to see someone who manages to take fine photos in Winter, I always struggle.  Best.  S

A great capture as it is, it could have many other faces by finely editing. But the only thing that bothers me and would be not good in all those faces is the cropping of the shadow's head.

Really a nice and fine capture.

Bjorn, very evocative of winter. Your use of B&W, snow, long shadows, and high contrast is very effective. I could wish the walker were not quite so close to the edge of the frame. His importance to the image feels undermined by his position in the composition. Otherwise, very well done.
