Hi David
I like your POV here and the capture of the sun is striking, a very special moment. Good detail in the foreground tree and I like that you have included the distant car lights. Good composition.

Great capture. I love both the effect you describe, like an opening to 'another world', almost incompatible with the darkness of the air, and the way your photos drives us onto the road, with the car at the end.

Hello David,
An attractive look to this winter scene, with the sun creating an interesting focal point in the image. The overall effect here is almost monochromatic, and the road disappearing into the distance hepls draw the viewer through the entire scene. Nicely done.
Cheers Grant

Hi David,

You have some very interesting work in your gallery and it was a joy to browse through it. I stopped here because this winter landscape draw my attention. It's cold and that shows. The light of the sun is soft but has a wonderful glow with long stripes to both sides. The headlights of the car make a nice focal point with the road in perspective depth.
A photo that i like, in presentation, composition and colour....wonderful.

Regards,

Henk
