Just need a feed back on composition, rules , and post processing.

Do you like it or not as a whole canvas? why ?

Thanks!

Well, you took this shot inside the car? Since you have the time, you may consider walking to the bench area and taking the shot of the woods and building the bench was facing. :) Fog shot may or may not work because fog can render the sense too blurry. Like any landscape shots, it helps if you have a strong foreground subject to draw the viewers to the background.

I'm not a huge fan of the car in the frame. I wish you would have focussed more on the trees or something - beautiful location, just a different perspective I think would have helped.

I like how the colors of the sign, bench, and the playground pop.

As far as the composition goes, there's nothing that holds it all together for me.

The hood of the car says "quick snapshot" to me and that you were not interested in really working the scene.
The leading line of the curve in the road leads me to ... a brick building? Not enough interesting there to be payoff for me.
Also on the leading line, these are usually more effective if they come in from the bottom and lead us somewhere. In this case, the leading line comes in on the left side of the frame and takes me out of the frame on the left side. The rest of the photograph becomes negative space because there's no good way to get there.

I'm glad to see you attempted in that snowy/foggy environment. I've seen a lot of that type of weather when I was growing up in Minnesota, and never knew what to do with it. If I see it again, I'll go out exploring to find the splashes of color to see what I can do with them.

Thanks for sharing!

Image editing OK, encouraged, and expected. Thank you for helping me learn!

Thanks for all the feedback. Very much appreciated.
I like the playground sign that leads you to the playground. :)

What is your subject? Why did you take this picture? What are you trying to say?

Title tells me nothing, and I even tried to embelish your shot :)
