 Had this idea in my head after three days of thinking... Although I wanted him to be walking towards an old gas station with the sign "closed" visible to US but not him as he was on the other side BUT - you can´t get it all I guess :o)

This is my husband, our sons were waiting in the car singing like crazy LOL...

This is AWESOME, Ragga! This one should have ribboned! A bummer, indeed. . .although, I'm not sure I would mind having to walk in that breathtaking scenery under any conditions :)

All this shot lacks is one little snowflake in the corner to make it complete.

I like the composition. Lighting is a bit drab. A red container could have helped pop some color in the shot.

JMO :)
