Linda this is just beautiful...crisp, clean, and VERY cold-looking. The subtle colors are very pleasing as well as the overall scene-comp is great and I just love the blue trim on that house.

Lovely


Comments by Steve Owen on Mon, 01/22/07 16:07

Beautiful! It does look cold.

I like the sense of balance in the image between the three trees on the left and the house on the right, the contrast between that of the house and the muted nature of the sky which works to make the dwelling stand out strongly in the image, and just the sense of winter on the Prairies that is evoked by the picture.


Comments by Ruth Rittichier on Mon, 01/22/07 16:52

I get a sense of remote and verrrrry cold.

Beautiful Linda, the composition, the light, everything. I hope you're hanging this one.

regards,

Jim

Quite lovely.

Nice, clean and quiet. Bravo!

Ditto the others. IMO B&W would be great. From a previous comment the trim is an obvious attention getter. Whether it should be or not is arguable.

Excellent Linda. Great find and a great moment to get the shot. A little bit of grass through the snow, great sky that blends the overall feel... the right amount of snow on the roof. And the wires even work here. I hate you, Linda.

Great shot. Stark but beautiful.


Comments by Karen Habbestad on Mon, 01/22/07 20:03

fabulous.


Comments by Rafael Seibert on Mon, 01/22/07 21:18

The color is splendid. The sky, the snow and the house are all so similar and yet so different. The house which is white, but isn't, is really set off by the bit of blue in the trim. It works.

Very Nice

Beautiful!!!

Linda,I am sooo envious! I have ran around the country for the last 10 years taking photos of old abandoned houses and NOW I see what it can look like!! Very simple with just the right touch of everything.

So well taken. Looks like a water color out of Dr. Zhivago. It's a shame to see a house this beautiful abandoned. Truly a beautiful scene. We haven't seen this kind of snow yet. Got a feeling we gonna pay.

Subject and final composition is ACE. A perfect moment.
Abandoned? The access road appears to have been cleared recently.
I feel that I would have cheated and cloned out the antenna.
Very attractive overall.


Comments by Arfon John on Tue, 01/23/07 09:49

Very crisp and clean. Nice work.


Comments by Garry Schaefer on Tue, 01/23/07 10:14

What can I add to all the kudos? Takes me back to my childhood/youth in Alberta. Super!


Comments by Luka Ban on Tue, 01/23/07 11:23

If I had been there I should have been focused on windows, doors, roof, trees, grass...and probably failed. Formula that works: holistic aproach and starkness...


Comments by Kenneth Heffernan on Tue, 01/23/07 13:53

I hope there is a wonderful warm fire going on inside Grate photo


Comments by Joseph Liftik on Tue, 01/23/07 14:09

love the feeling and aesthetics of winter this captures


Comments by Art Sands on Tue, 01/23/07 18:11

excellent shot


Comments by les perry on Wed, 01/24/07 13:30

I had thought that going b/w would lose something on this as the colours seem to gel so well. However I was working on a Sepia action and ran it through, so posted it up as a comparison, but all that blue light on the snow has made it look a little muddy and not as strong as the orig.


Comments by Gale Giegerich on Fri, 01/26/07 20:39

Gorgeous. Not one thing needs to be changed IMO!


Comments by els mo on Fri, 01/26/07 23:10

At first I thought it would be better with the left tree cropped.
Silly me! It's those three trees which makes this an exceptional image!
And the marvellous turquoise trim, of course.
A very 'Linda' picture!

Comments by teegee on Fri, 01/26/07 23:23

I wouldn't change a thing. I just hope the original is at least 48 inches wide.


Comments by jacques barbier on Sat, 01/27/07 10:46

Beautiful pastels. I'd crop a touch from the rhs.


Comments by Bahman Farzad on Sat, 01/27/07 11:11

Comments by Dave Lavash on Sat, 01/27/07 11:33

Lovely shot. Must have missed this one. Nice work.


Comments by Julie Christiansen on Wed, 02/07/07 19:02

Fine comp here, great saturation and well taken.


Comments by Richard Dong on Wed, 02/07/07 19:14

Looking at this makes winter almost bearable. Love the blue trim.
