Great shot! I'm really into minimalism these days, and this is the kind of shot that I like to see. The composition is simple and pure, allowing us to just concentrate on the essentials without any distractions. Great choice to crop out the sky too, and just leave us with the snow and the tracks. I really like the texture of the surface, which your close in view at the bottom of the frame allows us to see. Nice work!

Hi Richard,
Quite efficien corner to corner composition. Unhurried skier crossing untouched snowfield. And there was no hurry, you can see it from marks of ski poles. In reality that looks much brighter, but if that was the effect you wanted, it's fine with me.
