 Bar far the most uncomfortable I've been willing to make myself for a shot. I'm not super happy with it since it was snowing a bit and I don't think I got as clear a shot as I could have with better weather and a tripod, but it is what it is.

I really like this--well seen and composed. Moody and cold, stark, desolate, and deserted... Nicely done.

I was one of your 9s; I think this is a fantastic shot - the contrast difference between the black and white landscape compared to the grey sky is fabulous; I'd love to see a higher res version of this on 1x.com.

:( I miss the summer. I like the photo how it is in black and white. There is positive space in the snow.

I like the idea, I wish you could have gotten farther in so there was just one fence, and we could see the wonderful churned sea.
