OK so here is my first real post.
I chose this because of the seasonal links and the location of the shot. I am a great believer in the fact that there are always photographs to be taken and this was snapped in my garden during the recent heavy snowfall, when I was limited to photography within walking distance of my home.
This does have a small amount of cropping applied, to remove a plant stalk from the right hand side of the image, I then played around with levels and curves to get the white snow as I wanted it. Finally a small amount of fractalius was added to enhance the graphic effect of the leaves.
