A nice picture and very good mono conversion. I think waht makes this work from me , apart from the body language of the ladies, is the st of three parallel paths that they have left without cluter from other walkers. Together with the tracery of the trees they creat the impression of cold, but also of virgin snow and quiert and more peaceful times. The negative space that the right of frame worried me at first, but has grown on me as the ladies m=need somewhere to go.
Nice picture
