As in National Geographic's website
A chance for beeing published in NG is near zero for the most of us. A bit easier then to be included at their website where a photo editor makes a pick of 12 photos daily.
I had the pleasure to be included in February and March and must say that I feel most comfortable amongst the other photos selected at these days.
You have btw only 1 chance each month to suggest a photo.

You find the site here should you be interested >>

(The motif used here is presented earlier at TE in another version.)

Très beau chalet et belles couleurs! Bien vu.
Cordialement

Congratulations, Jack, and the photo is indeed fantastic, really worth the publication! What a light!...

Cheers
Alexander

Hello Jack,
Fine light, and the well picked point of view creates this great sense of depth!
The moment is well chosen as the cabin enjoys the last rays of sun while most of the surroundings is in the shade...
Fine tight composition with good details!
Greetings,
Pablo -

A smily for you Jack. Well done!
The light made a great depth on this shot.

Hi Jack,
Very beautiful one. Again warm toned low winter light against blue snow tones. And the sheer amout of snow (from single snowfall?) is impressive. But what's that line to the right of the chimney?

Bonjour Jack,
voilà de la photo bien artistique. Ce petit rayon de soleil qui vient frapper neige et boiserie donne juste la lumière qu'il faut pour apporter de la féérie.
Là, je suis vraiment séduit.
La netteté est aussi imparable.
Un grand bonjour de Belgique.

Hello Jack,

You've managed the light and shadows beautifully. Despite the brilliant light, there are no areas of harsh contrast. The composition is very good, as is the resolution. As for the NG publication, I'm proud to have a TE-colleague at the site. My book will be published by National Geographic in May.

Warm regards,
