Hi Lloyd,
A nice winter shot. I like the cottage with the snow lightly covering the shingles on the roof. I think the sky gives a great wintry feel to it. I also like the ps effect around the edges.

But I'm not a big fan of the foreground. In my opinion, it is the least interesting thing to look at in the shot but it takes up about 3/4 of the frame.

Do you think you'd like this shot just as well if you reduced or eliminated the foreground brush?

Just my .02 (even though you weren't asking for a critique)

ah...something about this gives me a headache...bah

not that its not a cool shot, but can you post the original with ZERO processing?

Just my .02 (even though you weren't asking for a critique)Yes, I gree it would look much better without the foreground..thanks..
