I think its a pretty good shot. I've never shot snow before, but I think your wb is a bit off.

I don't see anything wrong with the WB. Nice shot!

Nice exposure! Maybe its just me, but I kept waiting for the bottom of the pine tree on the left to show up.


What? Me Worry?

WB and exposure looks good to me. I agree with the comment on the tree, you need to show the bottom or cut it out completely - it looks like something is missing with half a tree showing. Otherwise, great shot.

I like the tree one better too as it gives the eye a good start point when first looking at the photo.

Now that I look at them both I feel like the tree added balance to the shot, and without it the right side is too heavy..

Do you guys prefer number 1 or the picture from the OP? The second has more trees in the foreground.
