 Knowing DPC, I am not expecting more than 5.1 for this one... Top, 5.5

people hate frame here and it is not interesting... Some will say "I wish the snowman in the background would be in focus" Driving me nutz...

snowman in background I think is good thing there in background. Gives tree a sense of scale. Imagine if it was not there are all.

I was being sarcastic... I love this photo, my first shot with my new star filter :) I thought it would get a ribbon :) High hopes what I have to stop, not beating myself up.
