I'm not really a snow person but this makes me want to build a snowman! Lovely shot. A bit "blue" so a little work in PS required to correct white balance. However, really nice shot. Kind regards, Paul.

Hello Silke,
You should send some of that snow over here. That's a nice composition with a well-written accompanying note. Great clarity and sharpness. There is a blue cast on the snow because of the sky. May also be underexposed but don't know the ISO, can't tell for sure.
Best wishes,
Hakan

Hello Silke. The picture impresses by the enormous snow quantities. The photo becomes however only interesting by the shape of the snow created by the wind. In addition the photo is outstanding composed. By the trees in the background the relations and relative importance become visible. Very beautifully. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Excellent winter landscape, once again! Great composition and light managment. This piece of snow in the foreground looks like a sculpture. Congratulations!

Hi Silke,
impressive snow sculpture by nature. I like the light and shadows on the snow with so many details. The trees are a good closure before reaching the sky.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hello Silke,
Seems like you've got your fair share of snow this winter!
A simple but attractive composition, good tones in the snow topped by this beautiful February sky...
A well composed presentation!

Hi Silke

I like the superb backlighting. Nice textures & shadows in the fg snowbank, with good sharpness & graphism of the dark trees. Tfs!

Hi Silke,
It's good you have more nice winter pics for my enjoyment :-)
It's been long since I have seen so much snow in one view, so of course I appreciate this point and the feeling it looks like a big wave. Because today I look at it at home on my new and picky screen I note that the sharpness is below the possibilities of a D70s, which is a fine camera even though I run with the competition... I believe it results from noise reduction that impacted the edges of snow and trees, for that reason and because noise is first apparent on evenly colored areas such as the sky here, it's better to apply noise reduction on a sky selection rather than on the whole photo. Another possibility is that it results from downsizing, I usually downsize in three steps with an action and use "bicubic sharper".
This is just to tell you how I'd address such details, probably on most screens the photo will look fine, and the general impression on me is mood lifting as well :-)
Have a nice week end from Elsass where the plums are blossoming,
Jean-Yves

Hej Silke,
Beautiful capture of these big amounts of snow. The shapes that are formed look really nice and quite impressive. The light enhances too and I like the inclusion of the trees. Good work!

hello silke . what takes my attention is the same appereance of the trees , they look so parralel and size alike . I tried to compare the size of this drift , at first sight it looks very small and not harmful in case of avalanche , but if they gather God knows what happens. nice view indeed
