I think it was about -10 degrees out when I took this shot. (White Enhanced by Popular Suggestion!!)

Really nice B&W shot- looks calm and peaceful! A couple suggestions to make it even better: boost the contrast just a bit to strengthen the whites, and move the bird down so it's not as close to the edge,

Nice. Whole scene is so static and then comes a bird flying.

I agree with Adam: bring up the whites, and you have a splendid photo! Well done!

Thanks all for your comments. I decided to replace the earlier photo with a more enhanced white version. Turned as white as I could without washing it out.

A stunning image. The perspective and post processing make it appear like a miniature set-piece.

Thanks pklax. Funny you said that. I had the same thought as well on the miniature set-piece.

It looks something like an Edward Gorey image. Outstanding!
