This belongs on a Christmas Card or one of the winter greeting cards. This is so beautiful. I love the way its composed as you lead us through the open gate and we follow the tire tracks to the house that looks so warm and cozy in all the snow. The snow covered trees are gorgeous and the mountain stands so majestic. That sky with the pink in it is absolutely stunning. A beauty my friend. #9140418Carol L. Fowler January 04, 2011

Such gorgeous colors, leading lines, inviting shapes and magnificent elements of Smokies beauty. All that said, my favorite section is that layer between the mountains and the snow, and how you managed to separate it from its surroundings. Another wonderful work of art. #9156914Mary Timman January 16, 2011
