after rollover .. far out ..!!..
really really happy with this result ..
thankyou Cyrilda and Mark for your comments and Mark for the fav .. xx
altho ... after this went in for voting i had a moment when i thought it might get a dq .. i'm hoping that snow brushes are acceptable in extended ..

just as a matter of interest ..
when i give my editing steps to the sc for validation i tell them everything i've done .. is that the same for other ppl .. ??

Absolutely not. My editing steps are on a need-to-know basis. The only time I ever revealed my steps was when they waterboarded me and the water tickled my nose and I couldn't stand it any more. Tell them that magic elves guided your mouse as you edited this masterpiece.
LOL, I'm a minimalist when I explain my editing, bc half the time I can't even remember, but also bc a lot of it doesn't need to be told due to the nature of the steps, if you know what I mean :)
hahaha Ken .. good answer .. :)
and I will take your method on board Anita .. i almost don't want to get in the top five because I'll have to detail everything I've done .. and for some extended edits it can be a lot ..
those sc ppl are probably having a chuckle at my expense..
not anymore ..!! .. ;)

I like your photo and I'm glad to see it did well (I didn't find time to vote this time around). I'm worried about yours holding up on the validation though. Georges ran into a problem adding rain to one of his entries, but that was in Standard editing rules. I am curious as I noticed I had some software I've never played with and it has all kinds of 'textures' that basically do what you've done here - added something new on top. I was going to ask if this was legit in another thread for Standard editing and / or Extended. Good luck!
It's a wonderful composition, Roz!
This scene feels so real - well done on the snow
I was so busy this week I couldn't vote, your score would be even higher otherwise
