The section of sky that appears to be overexposed spoils the shot somewhat.

Looks like you had a wonderful opportunity. However, IMO the sky needs a more dramatic appearance.

Beautiful winter landscape photo. In my newbie opinion, it lacks that AA sharpness in the details of the trees. Best of luck.

Nice composition but I think it needs more black for the AA style, (according to the threads I've read, anyway) 7

One of the more "Ansel Adams" style challenge submissions. Great job with composition and choice of subject. My only comment is that I would have liked to see it a little sharper. The edges of the trees are just a shade too soft for my tastes and don't match the pin sharp, high contrast of Adams' work. Lovely shot, though. A strong 8
