Well done. You captured a winter landscape quite well. Your whites are white for the most part(very often with digital snow ends up looking rather blue) and the overall contrast is great. The darks are good and deep without losing detail and the whites are not too blown out. A few things I may have liked better: The tree trunks in the top corners are a bit distracting for me, perhaps you could either crop them out a bit more, or have tried a different angle to get rid of them; The stream seems to be the main focus of the photo, so perhaps move the photo down a bit to capture more of the stream and less of the trees in the background. This would give it a bit more of an open and spacious feel too. The water in the very foreground looks extremely still and I can see some reflection in it, perhaps seeing a bit more of that would have been good. All in all, though, good landscape shot.
