I Got Everything I Asked For (Almost)

-Orion in the southwestern sky; check

-Clear, moonless night; check

-Fresh snow; check

-Landscape and trees flocked with said snow; half check

Everything seemed to be coming together nicely for this image to be just what I imagined it would or could be, but the snow just wasn’t as heavy on the cliffs and trees as I had hoped. Never the less, I’m happy with it and look forward to improving on it in the future.
