A stunning shot.... I want to go there now. I can feel a call to my friends in Edinburgh coming on, a weekend in Scotland is just what I need.

Actually I need to say more. This is one of the best shots I've seen in ages Ronnie, I keep going back for another look, beautiful work.

Clear and bright, Ronnie. The 'coldness' seems to show better in this colour version, and the detail is more discernable with the aid of colour.

I agree with the other accolades, Ronnie; this is very special. Nice to get the feel of isolation from the diminutive cottage with the hills behind it. The FG colour nicely contrasts the snowy backdrop. I like that your PoV allows the sweep of the right hand hill to take off from the cottage, leading your eye through the frame nicely. To help that, I might have been tempted to take a wee bit more off the FG water, perhaps 1/3 in order to allow the left hand hill reflection to better lead your eye across the water to the cottage. A minor suggestion only in a terrific image!
