April 8th in Ohio at 1:00 pm and a very heavy fog was still around with 34 degree tempretaure and stiff winds. In golf, winter rules are invoked for inclement weather. But the title also implies winter reigns supreme. Used a wide bracket of aperature priorities to insure a descent exposure. Used the timer and tripod to reduce camera shake. Cropped the image for size and get a panoramic view (and a score card effect), then sharpened the final image to bring out the club house in the distance.

Greetings from the Critique Club!
This is a nice pastoral setting and very soft and moody. The coloring is nicely saturated and the fog is beautiful. There are beautiful shades of green. Very 3 dimensional.
I like the rolling, hilly landscape and the format of panoramic style works well with this.
I love the trees. They just look so beautiful.
The clubhouse doesn't stand out much and I don't think it matters one way or the other whether it is there or not. If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have really been able to tell for sure what it is.
This composition is very nice. Nice to see the little golf ball in there too. Helps tell the story.
Post processing is fine. No noise or artifacts.
Nice job!!
Regards,
Excellent picture! :) I like the cllubhouse in the background - I like that you can just barely see it. I would have focused more on that than the flag.
I hope it was only on that day and you are fully into spring now! Good image here, you are depicting the bad weather well, nice panorama effect. By the way that looks like one of our summer days!
nice composition. i like the fog. the added golf balls, wether actully played or just set out there for the pic, is a nice additon as well. nice diagonal "line" with the balls too. you do good work
Love these fog pics. Is sort of comforting. Long DOF, but would like to have a litttle sharper image, ie- a focus on the flag? Nice crop Is the sun rising back there?
I like the smooth flow of lines, soft colors, and ofcourse the 'trees in the mist' thing. I would've done two things differently: 1. cropped out the dark tree in the right end of the frame, and 2. more sky, less ground. Cropping about half of the dark grass at the bottom and including just a little bit more sky for contrast.
