Snow covered woods

Snow covered woods

First thing I did was to duplicate the photo and then I used Virtual Photographer Satin Steel on the top copy. Loved the coloring, but the softness was a little too much for me so I lowered the opacity on the VP layer until I got the right balance of color and sharpness. Also blended the white background with the white and blue snow flake background together until I was happy. Other than that it was a pretty straight forward LO using a template and kit.

The photo was taken early in the morning last week. I managed to get up and snap the shot before the snow fell off of the branches from wind or sunlight.
