| 1. I voted for the first one |
|
It really caught my eye.
I like all of them, the bird would be my second choice.

I have loads - we had a record snowfall this winter. They (pictures) all just start looking like a bad winter after a while.

| 5. Count me in for numero uno! |

It looks both extremely cold, as the others do, but has more variety, and I particularly love the lamp post and trees as they stand parallel and darker, in contrast to the snow. As for the bird, I think I would have preferred to see more of its face, but even so, I would go for the first one anyway. I love it! Seeing the newly fallen snow like that, the street covered with snow, and absolutely nobody in sight--it has the winter starkness going on in a big way.

The birdie was all puffed up and covering his face in his wings and wouldn't let me get a good face shot. The meanie!
My building is like a ghost town these days...everyone moving out and no new people because it's all closing down.

That is a bit unsettling. I guess you will be moving soon. Good luck. :)

| 16. In March, yes. Thanks. |
|
Actually, it's been wonderfully peaceful and quiet. Very few neighbors, very few kids...little to no traffic.

| 7. I had to come back 2 times to decide. I was at first for the fourth one, it speaks |
|
to a quirk in me because of the patterns.But to enjoy that Pollack type pattern I have to take off the whole white bottom.
Then i realized the first one is the one. My playing around with number four is my own idiotsycracy.
I love the fourth one a whole lot, and wish I had taken it or been there to see this vision myself. But I voted for number 1, it's beautiful, tells a full wintry story beautifully, and it will be popular!!!

But the laciness of the trees contrasting with the buildings and lamp post is what makes the first one the winner.
