Just a picture I started when I was on the mountains to ski, when we had long evenings to spend at home. ^_^ The landscape is taken just from that of the real mountains where I was (North-East of Italy)

Well the landscape is just beautiful, Ialso like how the spirit is comming out of the snow. I would have prefered it though if the sky wasnt white as the picture becomes too bright.

Thats beautiful. It really has a lot of winter charm. I love the way the spirit comes out of the snow but it's really hard to see. I actually didn't even notice it until I saw Stavros' comment 2 Great job.

Stavros, in the winter the sky IS white, at least around here; sometimes, people not used to it get all dizzy and lose their sense of balance because the sky and ground look so alike (it also causes snow blindness, BTW). This looks just like some landscape straight out of Lapland, except that there are too many trees here. It has a very, um, wintery mood - maybe it's just the rain outside, but I feel terribly cold all of a sudden... in any case, impressive work, Lluhnij!

No more comments? Oooh, but this pic is just superb! So quiet and enchanting! The spirit expression is perfect and touching in some way, the background is simply wonderful. Glorious!

Pretty!!! I love the way the shape of the spirit is just barely suggested with shadows. Makes it look very delicate!!!

It's a tribute paid
In jocund eloquence
By a maid in warm clothing
To a bucketful of morning bounty
And the purr of a mooing cow.

Dear Elena,
I liked your picture winter spirit.
The red leaf of autumn
got buried beneath the snow.
no one saw it changing colour.

Love
Sujoy.
