PESO - Loading in the Snow

This was taken a couple of weekends ago, but is kind of appropriate today, since we're in the midst of another "snow event" (as they like to say on the Weather Channel): http://knarf-underground.blogspot.com/2009/01/loading-in-snow.html They're calling for about 10 cm (about 4 inches) by the time

I love this shot, especially its colour palette. The highlights are a tad bright for my taste, I'd prefer to see a touch more "weight" in the brighter tones, in particular the sunlit parts of the green paint and the arc of the geared wheel at the top. Nevertheless it's a winner. Regards, Anthony
