So Cold

To put it simply, this piece is very nice. The colors of each stock match wonderfully. The blending of the sky and trees looks perfect. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h…" width="15" height="13" alt="" title="Heart"/>

I have just a few suggestions to make this even more awesome.

The first is to lower the brightness of the snow bank on the right; given the lighting, it looks a bit too bright. It should also be a bit more blue to match the one on the left.

The second suggestion is to use a soft eraser with mid to low opacity and go along the edges of the snow banks. This way there is a cleaner, more natural transition between the snow and water.

The last is to brighten up the trees a little, especially on their left sides. With the brightness of the light in that section of the manip, there should be some reflection of it on the trees.

They are very minor suggestions, and even without them, this piece is captivating. My favorite part is the sky; it's so well done. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/l/l…" width="26" height="17" alt="" title="Love"/>

Great work here. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/t/t…" width="40" height="18" alt="" title="Tight Hug"/>
