its not you at all, its your shadow!
i would still give comments on the way you took your photo, however the image is too small for my to see any details. my suggestion, next time make your picture a smaller resolution and larger pixels before posting
It's not a bad idea, and could have scored OK, if only it was not so small. I can't think what reason there could be to make it so tiny; the price of admission gives you a 640 pix seat here, so why not use it? Alas ... 3
These long shadows are amazing and hey I get your sense of humor. However, you know that the size of the image will bring you trouble and then the shadow thing may not receive full appreciation. 5
i'm not going to beat you up over image size or meeting the challenge. i'm scoring you a 5, and hoping that you don't take the comments personally. this place can do wonders for developing your photography, but it is not without bumps and bruises. i like your idea and the creativity it shows. just remember, the biggest mistake you can make is to quit trying!
Returning for comment. Image is a little small for evaluation. This was a creative idea. From what I can see, backgound appears a little cluttered and more snow on the ground would have helped. Overall, a unique take on the challenge.
