Description
What I see outside my window. I love that the sun is trying to peek through the snow clouds. It's been snowing all day and for about 5 minutes the snow stopped and the sun tried to come out. Perfect time for a picture.Related content

Hi, so I'm not a professional photographer. No I am actually learning myself so I am in no place to judge,
however I will voice my opinion in a constructive Manner.
So for starters i love the colours of the photo. It's interesting to see how the sun shines on the snow makes it look very beautiful.
The little bit of bokeh in the center is a nice touch.
What you did with the editing was overall ok but i would change a couple things.
1) the blur in the backround. It's hard to tell what is back there and because it isn't completly blurred it becomes a little distracting. ( it could be just me)
2) the contrast is a bit over brightened so I have to squint when i look at the top of the photo. ( again it could be just me).
over all this photo has a very interesting perspective and it seams like you picked the perfect timing to take a photo!
I give this photo an 8 out of 10. 2 things i thought could be changed so - 2 points.
I hope you see this as a nice critique , I was not meaning to be rude or judgemental.
Keep up the good work! I will watch you because you do have an awesome gallery!

Amazing effect! Did you add a special filter while shooting, or did you edit the picture? Anyhow it's beautiful.

Nice. The colours are so beautiful conveying to me a feel of majesty and magic. It wouldn't be out of place in a fantasy book. The sky is amazing, the clouds are perhaps slightly exposed but it has a good impact. The use of the snow mound provides good foreground and the trees are a good contrast. Well done.

Snow or no snow. it must be nice to look out your window onto nature like this. That's a great shot...very intense lighting and colors. the blue in the shadows is amazing!

As soon as the sun came out for a few minutes I just had to get a picture of it. And yeah, it is pretty nice to see this everyday. There's so many other great places around here to see and I can't wait to take pictures of them all.

I actually HATE the snow, lol. And we get lots of it in Michigan. I'd love to live somewhere warm.

haha, I guess we both live on one extreme of the weather spectrum. I think I'd prefer somewhere that gets a lil of both.
