    I think it is very good.
    It seems maybe a little overexposed. In black and white I think it is always nice to have some true blacks, maybe in this case in the trees. Maybe would have been composed better if you had not cut of the road on the right hand side.

    This is nice Jacky! I agree with TIFF about the road. Would be better pulled back just a hair and a little panned to the right. This is not an easy lighting condition to shoot in and you did a good job balancing your exposure.

    Re: Snow fall new year

    I like this a lot. I'd like to see the same shot with something on the road like a lone car perhaps. Still great though.

    This is a really lovely shot. Very peaceful and calm. You can almost hear the silence of the new fallen snow. I don't think I would want to see a car spoil this, but maybe a couple walking down the road with the footprints.

    Thank you so much. I am glad you like my picture. It is exactly what I wanted to capture, calm and peaceful, it is a park and no cars are allowed on this road. I agree that it should have been composed better not cut to the right and not cut the tree. I took the shot very quickly because it was starting to snow heavyly and I did not want my brand new camera to be covered with snow.
