I took this after sliding to a stop with no other cars around. Winters in the upper peninsula of Michigan are long and intense.

    this image makes u stop and wonder what is the texture, drawing you in to a sort of snowglobe.

    Wonderful image. I like he subtle color and of course the use of shallow depth of field.

    this is gorgeous - the shallow depth of field is perfect and the way the snowfall obscurs the background even more

    Great job! I love it. :) I'm from Michigan so I can relate. But the lower peninsula, so I don't have it quite as bad as you. ;)
