Fresh snow and a near-by mill pond - yay! And Pat to go with me - Yay again. We had a wonderful morning, leaving as soon as it got light, to go out and about and see what we could see after the fresh, dry, cold snowfall. At the edge of the mill pond, I tried for a shot of stark white snow background to these cattails, stuck in ice.

I'd say you are jumping in quite well. I like the second one where you pumped up the color contrast a bit; although, I like the B&W, too.
These are great!
I think your sooc is great!
I really, REALLY like the last two! I think you got the colors right, it looks great! Certainly makes me shiver! ;c)
I like the first one best, and love your composition here. Aren't you lucky to hang out with Pat!
You know what? I actually like your SOOC best! Good job.
I like this photo! Very cool and abstract. Glad you posted it!
I like all of these, but the second one stands out the most to me. I like the hint of blue in the background. Very nice!
Great photo, love the snowy look here!! Looks like it was COLD out, glad to see you back!
