    I like these both, Greg. What i like a lot is the stark contrast of the subjects and the snowy scene. The moments are also very cool.
    Good stuff.

    Nice Greg. B&W snow scenes are my favorite. I agree with gary about the contrast, and the moment. Nicely done.

    Just bitter cold in Dixie! Love the first shot, the vast openness of the view makes it for me. B&W is a winner!

    I love the 1st one Gary. Just amazing. The black and white works just perfectly here.

    The first shot is great and the better of the two, the second one is good and funny. Nice shots both of them.

    Both are excellent for different reasons.

    The second one brought a smile to my face.

    I lean towards the first. It's casual enough to be fun and informative at the same time. Nice work,

    Love the first as well, I would personally try it with the "holes" photoshopped
