What a difference a few months makes. This would make a good temporal study.

Winter shot - snow looks dingy grey, not "snow" white (I know snow isn't always white - I live in Canada!). It looks like "processed grey", though, and not a natural shadow grey. In fact, it appears the highlight parts of the snow are grey.

Good point. Thanks.

I like the snow shot (mainly cos we don't get much snow in Northern Ireland). 

But I agree the snow looks a bit too gray...

Possibly because of all of the pollution in the Jersey air!!

New Jersey, landfill of opportunity.
