Got this piece of Driftwood against the front of the house.
The Ice and Snow on it caught my eye.:huh

Lil bummed that I got the house siding in the shot but there really wasn't a choice.
Dunno if I like it better as color or B&W?:dunno
Hell I dunno if I even like the shot at all with the siding in it. :uhoh

    The snow is a little gray there. Remember that you've got to adjust your exposure for snow.

    I find the composition somewhat messy. The edge of the house, the elbow of wood to the right being chopped off, the DOF is too deep, IMO, so that the background is distracting...cool piece of wood, and I like the icicles, definitely worth reshooting.

    Maybe I shouldn't have bothered?

    If I move it I'll probably ruin the whole bit.:uhoh
