That's a lot of snow to trek through to the capitol building, which looks so majestic, stone cold in the snow. Perhaps a warm cuppa inside for the trekker?

that's so nice in b&w, maybe too much white on first plan you should have tighten framing

Very good image, I like the treatment and the composition. The figure trekking put movement and life in this so quiet moment.

I thought at first that was President Bush packing the Uhaul but I see it is a different capital. Beautiful shot andd processing.

I like the person in this shot to give all that snowy foreground scale and depth. Fine image.

It's so exhausting to walk in the snow ! A real physical effort. Lovely muted b&w, cgreat vertical crop which really enhances the image. Makes it coming out of the page !

Wonderful capture an processing, the lone trekker seems to be struggling through the snow, makes one wonder whats so important for him or her to be out in it

A moment frozen in time. I like the composition and vignetting around the sides.

As this character is small in front of this construction with dimension (and time) supra-human. The B&w treatment with the ton sepia gives the good role to the monument, and I understand it ;)
