Beautiful. The dead branch sticking out of the tree on the left isn't adding to the image and if it was mine I'd get rid of it.

Yes, especially if you had the family all bundled up walking toward us.

It is a winter scene...but it kind of needs a subject as ebrunner suggested. Whether you can add a 'seasonal' something around about the curve in the road, or seasonal text in that circle created by the tree trunks R&L of the start of the curve. That would make the snow covered fir 'the centre point of view'. (Cropping to just that fir won't make it better). The snow covered fir needs something to 'balance' it out, yet still make it the prime object balanced with a secondary minor object....A simple message could do that.
have fun...you have almost a year to sort it out!

Thanks. That branch is gone.

Yep, it’s lovely and ideal for a card but does need somebody on that road - if not family, how about Santa?

Yes I agree, something on the road would help. How about a surprised alien?
