Soft but Pointy!

I'm terrible at titles! Marc, can you name my photos... yours always have cool names!

Just made this one today. I'm curious if it's too subtle for people or what your reaction is to it. Any recommendations on processing are appreciated as well. Thanks for any comments!

I like this a lot Wayne - right up my alley. I might crop a bit off the top, but that's minor. I love the shape in the snow that the pinestraw caused.

Very nice and well seen. I must have passed by 100 similar compositions today and never saw them! Love the composition and the shapes in the snow. The whites are very well handled.

Intimate elegance, Wayne. (Hey, that could be a title.) I really like the way the curves here connect.

Great minimalist image. The subtle shadows and textures in the snow really hold this together. Excellent seeing and processing.

Wayne,

Sorry I'm late to comment, but I just had to let you know that I love this! Simple of course, great design with just enough texture in the snow. Great eye, beautifully crafted.
