I very nearly chose this instead of "just a little pond" so if you are inclined to edit this one, have at it. I will say that I had fun with it.

Thanks Bill. There is a long involved story to this shot, or rather why I was even there. It is in an area of urban decay so extreme, that it has an apocalyptic feel to it. This view is in the opposite direction of those 70 acres of ruins. These large monuments are grouped together in a rather vast area that gives you a peculiar sense of isolation and calm amongst the ravaged surroundings and the limits of a commercial zone before the highway.

That is some transformation Linda. The moon lighting works. I am supposing you used some burning to create the shadows. The low angle of the moon light, hitting the snow pulls it off. Thanks so much for your edit!!

Both burning and dodging (lighten the snow where moon rays might hit). Glad you like it!
