Hello John,

It is the fine detail that makes your photograph so very pleasing.
To see, so well, the spiky moorland grasses thrusting through the snow and trying to split the icy, pond surface gives that understanding of the place and the conditions.
I like how you have restricted the depth, using the surrounding trees to keep attention on the pond.
The exposure is very good, giving good colour and sharpness on what was obviously quite a dull day.

Have a lovely day,
Bev :-)

Hello John,
Lovely spot for an impromptu picnic. I like the point of view across the length of this frozen lake. The light was not of the best, nevertheless everything can be seen in perfect detail and the colours come together to form a harmonious whole.

Hello John,

I like your winter picture with a little bit snow, and the frost on the lake, wonderful.
A very pleasant panorama view about the area.
Real a nice colourful image.
A nice composition with a lovely presentation.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Hi John
first of all, sorry for the late reply...I was away from TE for a few days.

this could very well be any local area near where I live, especially when I look at the surrounding trees in your shot.

not exactly the best looking sky, but what can you do in these weather conditions right? not your fault :)
the highlight has to be the snow, the semi-frozen low water, the meandering bog that snakes its way through the scene, and just the overall winter-scene.

very pleasing, especially that you shared it with a friend.
enjoy your day
Craig

Hello John

Beautifully sharp, beautifully natural colours, beautifully composed. It proves to me that if you take the trouble to get it right in the camera, you don't need to fiddle about with Photoshop or similar. But then like me, you think of film as what we were using only yesterday, and the lessons persist. Good thing too!

Regards

Will

Ciao John
non si tratta del paesaggio primaverile con la sua bella e luminosa luce, ma il paesaggio è bellissimo in ugual modo, la neve ci offre una visione diversa del luogo che conserva ancora tutto il suo fascino.
Saluti
Carlo

Hi John,
so you have quite a lot of snow already! We got some first snow yesterday and more will come in the next days. I hate the snow because the traffic is terrible then but my daughter would like to experience some and to make a snowman.
Beautiful landscape shot here, the wintry decoration is fantastic. The pond seems to be frozen as well so it must have been really cold.

For the first time I hear about Canon M. I have checked it right away, it looks cute. It may be quite good for travelling light!

Excellent work!
Have a great weekend!
M

Hello John, although I do not really like going out in the snow too much, I do enjoy looking at pictures of wintry weather.
The icy pond makes the picture feel even colder with its opaque surface.
I like the way that you have used the fg edges of the pond to create a 'V' which keeps the eyes focused on the pond and beyond.
Excellent depth of field.
Lovely natural colours.
Regards Jean.
