Thanks RK, your right :-) Rich

Rich, the shot seems a bit flat. A bit of contrast in PS will greatly enhance the picture.

Jano, I tried a few different effects like shadows, contrast, highlights, levels, and color, and nothing seemed to help for the darkness look. I usually have to enhance in one way or another but this was right out of the camera. Rich

This really conveys a cold dark place. Why no pp Rich? just wondering. Nicely captured :) jano

Lovely scene

I really like the subject and the composition but am not sure about the toning - Lovely picture though Rich! CJ

Very nice Rich. I'd need lots of hot chocolate to sit in that chair for long- looks very cold.

I've seen dark days like this when the blues of the snow and atmosphere seem exaggerated. Eye-catching image, Rich! shu

You've done really well Rich, well done:-)

I like the darkness against the snow which makes this sort of eerie. :)
