I love the vignette. The darkness seems to emphasize the wind-blown effect on the snow too, creating a beautiful texture. I like the drama of the sky too.
I think this is kind of plain, it lacks something. Not sure what it is, just seems to need more scenery. It's a well taken shot of what you have. Maybe if you could have gotten more of the Valley, that might have helped.
You expression on this photo is truely fantastic. I'm partial to darker photos in general and for me, you've made this landscape majestic. Love the dark tones in your image. 9
