Natural landscapes: colour in a winter landscape

WILD GRASS AND ELBOW RIVER, KANANASKIS, ALBERTA
I relatively fresh snowfall created very good conditions for winter photography. I liked the curve of the Elbow River at this spot and, when I encountered this wild grass, I knew I had the making for a strong vertical picture. Do you agree?
Nikon D7100, tripod, polarizing filter, graduated density (darkening) filter on the sky.

I found this photo so very pleasing, Frank. The curve of the river, the chill of the scene and the beauty of the wild grass bring the viewer in beautifully.
