For me, this is so out of my comfort zone it's freaky! I've never actually walked in snow, although we have it in Christchurch on occasion. I grew up in the North Island in Gisborne, and it never snows!!! Playing with the white balance must have been fun!
I would almost prefer a crop of this ... it has a certain "japanese" inclination to it, but would have to be a little more simple to really evoke a Japanese aesthetic response -- of course, that's also asking the picture to be something it probably wasn't intended to be. Let me ask you, are you at all afraid for your camera in this cold we're having?

@Myrddin: I probably should be afraid for my camera, but I have more been feeling guilty for not taking very many shots lately. So when I took this (a while back) I bit the bullett froze my hands and fingers and took some photos.
