Well, this is not good time for shooting in Central Europe. Anyway grin total exposure 15 hours between havy snow and showers looks nice to me.

Hi Matt,
Glad that someone is catching photons this time of year. Raining here and no good weather for the past couple of months.
The image looks good, nice color rendition.
