This is sweet, Albert. I like the balance of the two different areas, the darker trunks and the lighter snow covered branches. This works great in B&W too. Very well done.

You keep pulling those snowy trees off, Albert! I absolutely agree with Harley about the balance in this photo. Glad you finally processed it.

Wow, that must have been some storm! The tree is literally saturated with snow! This is terrific. I especially like the clean, crisp whites. This is processed perfectly.
I would agree with Harley's comment about the two halves, but it also borders on a 50/50 comp with the eye bouncing back and forth a bit. But in the end, I don't see a better crop and this does work as a whole, with the two sides balancing out.

Even it B&W is has a cold feel to it. Well done. Looks like there's a bunch of tighter compositions in there as well.

Flat out awesome job on this image, Albert. The large version is a real treat as it lets me wander around the scene to take in all those wonderful details in the ice laden trees. I also like the job you did on the whites in the scene.

Albert, This is a wonderful shot and all the ice on those branches is so cool. I know it can be very damaging to the trees but it sure is pretty to look at. It has been mentioned being b&w but I'm not so sure because it very well could be the color version. I have shot scenes like this and they do look like b&w. Either way a wonderful shot.
