Well, my husband and I went to Vermont for a week and boy did we ever find snow! They had 3' when we got there and another 2 feet fell while we were there!
Nothing more beautiful then a fresh coat of white snow. I liked the lines of this barn and found it neat how the snow banks just showed the tops of the buildings. I had to remove tons of electic lines and fence poles and wires, then I sharpened it alot . Hope you like the effect , I'll post the original in the workshop.
I've been away quite alot , I'l be getting to my critiques soon! Thanks for visiting my gallery and your comments on my photos.

Hello Donna,
Happy return from the snow country (*_^) Vermont has received more than us this year. But at least it gave you the chance to get some nice capture. Very nice POV and colors. The snow look so soft. Perfect PP.

Allo Donna, j'aime beaucoup ta photo.
La lumière est radieuse et les lignes sont pures.
L'équilibre est bien présent, neige + maisons avec boisé et ciel.
Tout un spectacle qui termine bien l'hiver.
Merci
Pierre

Excellent winter scene, simpla but effective. The red house and the green-black trees contrast pleasantly with the white snow. I like the diagonal line of the slope.

TFS,

Hi Donna,
A nice wintershot, although a bit too much white on the FG. The colour contrast in this image is excellent! A tighter crop of the buildings might even make this a bit more interesting image, but your posting is really nice my dear Donna. Take care and have a nice weekend!

:) Later...

Like a christmas card, that is a lot of snow. Nice PP work removing all the distracting obstacles

Lotsa snow in foreground but hey, can't cut any grass there now, can you? (^_^)

At least all that snow will melt into the watershed. Can't wait to s more of your takes on this trip

AAwwww Donna what a fantastic and haromious shot!
I love it! Clean and serene white world and the way its presented its almost an 'ISO' photo :-)

Hi Donna, that is a lot of snow. Even in our mainland snowfields they don't get that much. Well composed with the slight diagonal, the colours of the buildings stand out well and very good detail. TFS,
David

Hello Donna,
A pleasant winter scenery!
Typical atmosphere in this almost cartoon like image, where I like the big space with snow in front...
The red house is an eye-catcher!

Hello Donna,

i can imagine how incredible it must have been to see that much of snow and how beautiful but very cold it must have been also...


the last time i saw and touched snow was in the beggining of the year 2002 and the one and only time i skiied in my life was 20 years ago...

i wish i could see such a landscape and feel the snow again, at least for some deserved holidays with my boyfriend...

TFS,
Chayma
