Sorry, I stopped listening after "snow" ;o) I love the light and the little world you caught reflected in this not-snow fairy/yacht!

terrrific Maire.

This is wonderful; many have mentioned the reflection, and I'd agree that that's the key feature of the image... but even the sharpness of the shapes, the colours which are just subtly different to the snow yet different enough to give it form, and the highlights and shadows. Nothing blown out, nothing lost, just the right exposure.

A snow rabbit with a big eye...
The reflection is really what makes this photo worthy. The contrast with the sun in the reflection and the snow is very appealing

So lovely, especially the wonderful reflection! v

You caught beautiful light, Máire. That made the image even more exquisite.

I like this shot and find it interesting and thought provoking.
If it dident have the superb steel ball and its reflection.
I would say it was a Gnome with a hat and one arm pointing up with the other opening his large trousers.
But then I have had a beer.
Nice one Maire.

This is beautifully captured Máire - I love the reflection in the glass marble. V
