Amazing how that touch of color helps the sun melt the snow. The suns energy at work!

As usual, very good colour rendition... Nice take on the theme Brent, always with a kind of yin/yang interpretation...

I love the textures of the leaf and the snow. That little leaf is taking the long way home, back to the ground from which it came as the snowmelt keeps the trees growing to shed their new leaves next fall. The wheel of life goes round and I for one hope we don't completely trash our little planet for the next generations.

Your picture shows very well how dark colors utilizes on their neighbourhood. If you hate your neighbours, take a good isolation on your house and paint it black. :-)
Very clever take to theme.

Beautifully observed and shot, the light is perfect and really brings out the coolness of the snow.

It absorbs and reflects and it is interesting how the leaf absorbs more heat than the ice and thus melts the ice around it. Nice take on th theme
