A lovely shot made even more enticing by the unusual shooting angle. I like the toned treatment as well.

The choice of the treatment sepia on the snow is a good idea. Its gives to your image an even stronger and beautiful atmosphere

Brilliant image JP! I also love the gritty texture it has.

Cheers!

  Thanks David! The texture comes from a combination of falling snow and shooting through a closed window.

Great angle!
I also love this sepia tone.
It makes the cold weather look warmer.
Do you agree with me?

  I’m an Aussie – nothing makes snow look warm to me

If it weren’t for the cars, this photo could have been taken ages ago! Wonderful atmosphere and
great birds-eye view

  Thanks Monique! Even with the cars, this somehow feels like an older picture to me, I have no idea why
