I love your use of color in this photograph. The trees have a lovely pastel appearance and look warm and inviting despite the surrounding bitter cold. Instead of barren winter trees, the image presents a kind of colorful winter foliage. Great job!

I really appreciate the mixed lighting in this image. It creates a scene that is both eerie and visually striking. Great decision to use a flash as an additional light source, too; the blue hue of the snowflakes contributes to the overall feel of the image.

I appreciate the striking visual simplicity of this photograph. The tracks of the skiers are cutting through an otherwise pristine field of white, similar to handwriting on a clean piece of paper. Great use of light, shadow, and contrast. I also like the aerial perspective.

It transforms our familiar landscapes, makes possible a whole range of different sports, and brings children and adults alike out of doors to build a snowman and make a snow fairy.
