Record snow levels in Sandpoint!

This is a shot of a bank of trees outside my house. Would you call it a bank of trees? A flock of trees? A wall of trees? I donno...

Here's another one.

When I took these pictures, it was snowing like crazy, so that's why they look a little blurry.

These are very interesting. I like having the snowfall, it adds a bit of texture to the image. I suggest cropping some of the snow at the bottom as it unbalances the image with positive and negative spaces.

Other than that I really like the purity of it. Nice shots.

That is a LOT of snow. They're pretty, but they dont really catch my eye if you know what i mean. Theres nothing to really draw your attention to. Obviously, when it's snowing thats a lot harder to achieve, but both pictures are almost identical. Changing the composition or something, e.g moving closer, focussing on a specific part of the tree, could produce some really nice results!

A forked mountain, or blue promontory,
With trees upon't that nod unto the world,And mock our eyes with air.."

These are pretty good! They are very...bright haha. I would suggest come close ups of particular trees and branches and such as well.

Possibly, as Adam said, crop the bottom? The date is very distracting as it is orange and the rest of the picture is pure white ;) Plus you can lose some snow on the bottom and not suffer from it.

Pretty good! :]

The pictures are pretty! Where I live, we just got through six-inches of snow. Crop the bottom to get rid of the date, and that is all! It looks so soft and fluffy, and it looks like there is a texture all over, (the falling snow.). I also like how every tree seems different, there are not just a bunch of evergreens. :)


Just crop it, and your good!

Good job and keep taking pictures!

It was snowing like crazy here, too. We ended up with two days of no school. Bwhaha..

Anyway, pictures! I love them but I like wintry things in general. I think I like the second one more, though. I like the little tree in the middle...it's cute.

I lreally like your pictures! I have always loved how snow sits on a tree's branches!
I pretty much know nothing about photography, :) but I think it might be pretty to take a picture like yours only zoomed in on the trees...or has the snow melted already? Thank you for taking these gorgeous pictures!;)

You have a real and very raw talent with photography. The only advice I would give you is to get rid of the dates. It takes away from your subject.

So... what exactly is "snow?" Is it that annoying white stuff all over those trees and... and the ground?

*cringes in fear*

Haha, I'm just kidding. We don't get snow here. Just lots of rain. -.-

Anyway, they're lovely photos! My only problem with them is that my eyes are really sensitive and the overload of white is kinda painful. But that's also part of the reason why I don't live where it snows! xD

But yeah. My only complaint is really a personal preference (and the date stamp - isn't there a way to turn that off?) so, in layman's terms, well done!

...Those are some interesting trees, too. I haven't seen trees that tall in a very, very long time. Nor pine trees. We don't have many of them here. Or forests.

...Yes, now I'm just rambling. So how are you today? xD

Might it be a 'stand' of trees? *ponders* I'm not sure.

But in any event, these photos are lovely! I'm not a big fan of snow, but I have to admit that it can be a wonderful catalyst for beauty. ...As long as it's not impinging on my ability to get around, of course. ^_^ Anyway. I can't really critique these except to agree that maybe you could crop a bit off the bottom, just for brevity's sake.
I decline to accept the end of man.

That's the kind of snow you get?


Not fair. Texas snow is icy mud, and only happens about once a millennium (this is an exaggeration, it only snows once every NEVER). When I went to Canada, they were like "It is warm in Texas? We'll swap!! " anyway...

I think that this picture is stunning. I love how the "snowy whiteness" takes command in the picture.

wow I'm sleepy.

These would be really good stock pictures if it wasn't for the date on the corner. They're really pretty.

Grr, i wish it'd snow here for once instead of stupid rain and wind and slippy frost in the morning.
