One lonely evergreen in the midst of all those skeletonized decidious trees………a nice contrast. The newly fallen snow accentuates the textures, while the misty air sets a special mood. This looks much like my neck of the woods, so now I’m heading off to bed with a good book and a soft blanket. Merry Christmas to all of you, and may you all be blessed with wonderful photo-ops in 2009!

I love the colors and atmospheric perspective. The scene holds a spiritual quality for me, magical. Great Photo – Congratulations! Merry Christmas to everyone everywhere from Montana!!

A very unique subject coupled with a unique, almost metalic look give the shot a very refreshing (though cold) look.

Evocative shot, Paulo. Well done.

Reminds me of the doings of the White Witch in Narnia.
Today we remember the coming of our Aslan.
Let us all be Merry at that!

Kind greetings, David (in warm Sydney)xox

The light seems to be dropping in from overhead, like movie light, with seems sureal for the darkness of the day. Wonderful light. And yes, a Merry Christmas to all.

I’d like to light up this lonely pine with Christmas lights.
Wishing all of you a blessed Season.

Deep, dark, yet somehow light. This has a nice light effect here with the storm. I enjoyed the feeling coming off the shot.

Very lonely and looking quite dejected too. I bet it would be happy to know it was the Christmas Tree for photo of the day!
