Ready for winter

When I set out to create something - whether it's a photo or a piece of writing - sometimes it takes its own course instead of following the one I had intended. It's almost as if I've poured some of my own traits into the piece of work. Namely stubbornness.

Anyway, I had intended for this image to have a specific look.

Original

But I wasn't able to create it, and so I pursued different looks. Ultimately, I came out with something I liked far better.

Finished.

What do ya'all think? Like? Dislike?
