I am making two passes on this Challenge. I will vote on your photo then return later(before voting is over) to comment on what I like and dislike about your shot. You can take the comments however you wish and I will try not to be mean. Just don't take it the wrong way.

This is a very unusual shot which appeals greatly to me, the snow has an impressive effect on the whole composition...it defines it..the angle of light; the three stones form a very strong picture...8
Very emotive capture. Might have turned a tiny bit more left and gotten more "footsteps" and less space by the cross, but that's neither here nor there. Simple and moody. Well done.
