I had taken a photo of the arch in the autumn with the reflecting pool (on my profile), and went to get the same shot with snow on the ground. On the way back to my car this flock flew by and was actually headed south (I'm only assuming for the winter). I snapped a few shots of them and knew this would be a good entry for the beauty in the everyday. I hope others share the same opinion.

Nice shot and congrats on the top 20. Way to represent St Louis, i thought about heading down there for snow pics but opted for a local state park. Well done!
It's a good scene that fits "everyday", though I don't see it fitting the "Wabi-Sabi" idea. I do like it, however. Maybe a little more sharpness or contrast on the details of the arch would be good, but that's about all I can criticize for this one.
A beautiful photo to be sure. I think that arch is extraordinary and I would love to see it in person. The birds add a nice element to the photo. This has the look of an infrared photo but it could just be frost or ice on the trees.
