We've had snow and wind around here for the past few weeks. This has been a winter more like what I remember from when I was a kid. I decided to go out and try to get some shots that captured the feel of it.

Holy ..... wow. This really and truly took my breath away. Exquisite tones. Brilliant composition and use of the extreme wide angle.

Very nice. I like the whoooooooooosh factor that strongly draws everything in. ~ Lonnit

I like this one a lot for its wildness, being attempted to be controlled by humans (the barbed wire fence) -Cat

This shot really grabs my attention. Lots of texture in the foreground, converging lines and good use of the depth of field this lens offers.
I expect lots of votes for this one.
