This is definitely my favorite from this series. Very nice composition to show off the remarkable conditions.

Cactus and snow just shouldn't be together, but I like this. I can almost perceive the green of the plants through the snow. The vertical works well.

Another wonderful image. I like the misty bg and the hints of color beneath the snow. Lovely series.

Lovely image - and the best of the series, imo.
Very nice!

Beautiful scene Bob . I like the hint of green in the foliage and the misty back round. Simple but very effective. Well done.

Nice. I do see a couple of dust specks you missed. Have you considered a high-key black and white conversion of this?

Wow! The last post was great but I might like this one even more. The snow makes the muted colors pop.
