It does have a very peaceful look to it, the quiet hush of snow.

I agree with Ann,very tranquil place Sari and nicely captured.

One thing though (you know me,always nit picking,:lol::lol::lol:,) the snow doesn`t seem very white,WB adjustment perhaps ?

i found the image to be soft for my tastes.
and it seems there's not much color in the
photo either which doesn't help. i edited it
and here's what i came up with. i used curves
and the sharpen tool.

also, your focus is on the tree stump instead
of the mountains and the reflection.

I like it, Sari. I'd like to go there and relax, maybe even ponder. That's it. It's an awesome ponder spot. Beautiful.


I tend to ramble. Feel free to put me on ignore.

I wouldn't mind Wu going. Really. I think, however, I should take my wife instead. :)
