A beautiful scene with excellent contrast and exquisite colors. I like the exposure that enables you to keep detail in the whites. I am not so sure about the tracks on the left.
Good luck in the contest.

Well seen and taken shot this,the vivid blue combines with the whiteness really well,the whiteness of the forground is slightly blown out,but the rest of the overall scene makes up for that,thanks for sharing this..brian

Great imagery, love the blanket of white in the foreground, leading to the covered trees. The blue sky just adds to and heightens the white of the snow. Great entry for this contest. Best of Luck!

The blue sky is lovely, lovely with the snowy white and the green pines!!

The path made by man/machine -- and its gentle curve is a nice element of interest in this sharply focused work. Good DOF as well.
