"Reaching 1". I rather like it, but I would appreciate your comments and criticisms.
Thanks for stopping by, Bob

It looks like something I would shoot.  I hope that is a thumbs up.   :)

I like it a lot, but I think I'd like it more if the sky were less grainy, even if the "grain" is really falling snow.

I like it a lot but a "cleaner" sky would be more to my liking.

Well seen.

Thanks you guys! I 'dialed in' the sky via the grain slider in LR, and it's easy enough to remove or reduce the grain. I'll play around with a bit more and may repost a modified version. -Bob

I would like it with even coarser grain... so the branches and grain will mix even more..
so yes i Like it!

Thanks kers. Apparently, grain is in the eye of the beholder. PS: I decided I like it the way it is, but don't tell anyone.

I like it as it is now, but I would love to see some variants.

It's like a color version of those old bw versions of a star filled night sky. It has an ethereal quality of snow or stars moving in the sky against a treeline. The bluish-grey gives an artistic look, to be sure. It looks fine.
