Deer in winter

Any thoughts on this winterlandscape, what do you think of the tree

and snow as background

I think it's a wonderful shot that is a) hurt by the size limits of this forum and b) needs a bit more processing to make it more effective.

As it is the deer blend into an almost pure gray background...and the tree is almost invisible...too faint to give an effective "taste of tree", if you will.

I took the liberty of toying wiith the levels and contrast in Photoshop to show you what I mean. I hope you're not offended, and I'll admit I may have over done it, but I think the attached gets the idea across.
