    That’s great. A self portrait I assume. — Less is more, so least is most :-) ) wonderful presence of mind. You were quick to sense the photo-opportunity upon seeing the scrub. Nice crop.

  2. Pauline Jones Pauline Jones Says:

    Footprints heading towards us doesn’t tell a story other than you walked across the snow, turned round and took the photo. If you had photographed footsteps heading away from us there would have been a much more poignant sense of story.

  3. Jeannie Armstrong Jeannie Armstrong Says:

    No Pauline it would just be the cliched and expected shot then.
    Rename it Snow Trail and it does what it says on the tin- sometimes we need to look behind us and see the trail we left.
    Or we could just enjoy the photo.
    Ha!

    Nice simple shot with good snow definition, and the growth is well-placed.

    Pauline, let’s pretend it was a pigeon-toed person walking away, that would add a new dimension to the story.
