Sorry for delay, have been quite busy.
About the image: It was a very hard winter here with very much snow, the snow "mountain" on the right is nothing else but snow from the streets. Nackstafjället fortsätter växa | SVT Nyheter

Always difficult to choose. I will present my top three, sorry i don't comment all entries.

3rd: todd's 2nd version. I like that panoramic crop (the first version a little too tight to the church tower). And the colors is true to that cold winter day.

2nd: Glenn5995. Best b/w, good contrast.

1st and Winner: Congratulations to astonm!!! I really like your postcard. Bright and warm colors. Could have been posted in the 1960's

Oh goodness, Thanks! I dearly love that picture, and imagine being out there on a sunny but bitingly cold day to get such a wonderful shot. Spectacular view! And the "snow mountain" Wow! Love that article you linked up to. Would have never known...

Mucking about a bit with the "content aware scale" tool in PS worked quite seamlessly on this one to get a bit more of that sky into the frame. I'm going to have to remember to play with it some more. I'll do some digging and try to get the next challenge going very soon. THANKS AGAIN
