I'm not this pessimistic, the title just fits the picture. I took this in my backyard after it snowed and only changed the color slightly to get rid of a little bit of blue sky.

Absolutely took my breath away the moment it came up on my screen. This shot actually gives me chills. Composition is compelling, as is the color treatment that you used. Can't wait to see how you did this. A visually engaging shot, no doubt, but it's one of those things that you don't want to look at, but you just can't help yourself. Terrific execution of the challenge. (Hopefully people realize that "nuclear" means "nuclear weapons", NOT "nuclear power"!
Wow. Awesome shot. I particularly like how the root of the tree sort of fades into the snow and the mist off in the distance on the left is eerie. Very forboding.
I like this alot, my only thought is that it should be darker... from a strictly scientific point of view a nuclear winter would make the sky so dark the sun wouldn't be visable.. but i like the image a lot.
