A snow drift with the shadows of tree branches forms an abstract pattern of whites and darks. That's what I saw.
Jacques Daigneault, a viewer of this photo on
Flickr, saw an icy wave. So, at his suggestion, I retitled this photo "Winter Wave" from the original "Winter Abstract."
Post processing: Layered, blended with Soft Light, levels adjusted and Violet filter applied. A big old baddy Unsharp Mask at 400% and 1.0 radius brings out the bling and makes it sing.

So stunning. Simple, elegant, lovely!
400% sharpening? Holy cow! I didn't even think that was possible!
This is gorgeous, James...love the violet filter to the snow.
It also looks like stiffly whipped egg whites. :-)
