Ohmygoodness! I can't get my mind around the lifestyle that you guys have. It is fascinating. . .and beautiful. . .and looks like so SO much hard work! I can't believe everyone doesn't have some kind of electronic machine that does this quicker than shoveling by hand. I bet everyone in Newfoundland is skinny and in great shape. We get to be couch potatoes in Texas :)
Wow, that looks awesome. Sorry, no high marks from me, I love snow! Good photo though... I'm sure most people will agree with you, so no low marks either :-P
Although it seems like there is too much background, I believe that the background is the best part! You really captured the angst of having to shovel snow with this image.
Overall good exposure and focus. I like where you went with this and it was a good idea for the challenge. However, there's nothing that's really remarkable about it that will make me remember it tomorrow.
