This is beautiful. I like how soft the snow looks. I also particularly like the border you put around the image.

Outstanding piece! I'm not usually a fan of framing either digitally on photography or in this case part of the digital painted piece . . .but in this case it works wonderfully. The lighting and delicacy of detail is exquisite. And that delicate texture you have over the entire piece makes me feel as if I'm looking through glass with a fine coating of ice. Absolutely stunning and even Zen. Wonderful! Peace, Dan

This is a lovely creative idea here. I really like the feel of this and your composition as well as your use of the medium. Nice one.However knowing your work, as I do, I feel this to be not quite your usual standard. Robin

Excellent point of interest. Great drama, and visual effect. Love the strong moonlit night and the break in the chill in the air. Artistically unique and choreographed. Beautiful work!

This is perfect for a Christmas Card. When I look at this digital work, the first mood that hits me is peace. With that bright full moon, and the stillness of the snowy night, quiet, such quiet. It is a wonderful expression of the spirit of Christmas.

I love this, it sure has the feel of a cold winter night and it makes a great card. I love the whole concept, the largeness of the moon, the trees all in white snow and the tiny house with the smoke coming out of the chimney, just a super job on this. Reda

Beautiful picture, but rush in the snow, I'm still trying to enjoy fall.lol. Love the white moon off to the left.The sky is a cold blue but looks great. Love the trees covered in snow. The little house is a great center of interest with the smoke coming out of the chimney. Lighting is great and creativity of presentation. Susan:)

Gorgeous! Great composition, skillfully put together. Works in every way and I've run out of superlatives for MoonWillow.

Can I make one suggestion, didn't know if adding an inviting yellow light in one of the windows in he house would be the sugar coating on th chery on top?!

This certainly makes a beautiful card for the holidays. The colors are very appropriate, and the snowed in theme, unfortunately, will soon be upon us. The picture is well composed, and it has strong initial impact.

Sonja. I was wondering why the 4 star rating when you marked 5 on all technical counts?? I really appreciate the review, but that is rather odd :))
