That's a lot of processing for such a simple image. I gave it a six. I love the composition for all it simplicity and quietness (is that a word?).

Great simplicity. I love how smooth windblown snow can get.

This is almost interesting though I do enjoy the large mound of snow. It almost appears to be the macro of a flat headed nail. The contrasts and lighting is nice as well as the delicate texture of snow many people sem ot overlook.

The detail in the snow is great in some places and nonexistent in others. This all has a nice soft feel to it. 6
