Trees in snow

This is a repost of a photo submitted 2 days ago. Changed to B&W, to

get rid of blue cast (thans Vlad!). And changed the photo so that the

contrast between snow and clouds/falling snow would be larger without

changing the high key nature of photo too much.

very original delicate image!!!!

Paul, this is very beautiful! I like the delicate high-key and the composition is excellent

Personaly, I am not sure the work you have made here is very succeed. There is almost no more details in the trees and they appears rather like a shapeless and greyish spot in the white surface.

Henri, thank you for your opinion. I am glad people also react when they think it is not that good!

I could increase the details, like in the attached version, but for me it looses the magic of a snowy day. There was almost not contrast when I took the photo. There was still snow in they air. And for me the trees are standing out, and not just as a grey blob. I invite you to have a look at an A3 print, quand vous serez a Grenoble. It looks better on a large print...

Same spot 6 months later.
