Official BimmerPost Photo Contest #49: "Winter"

BACKGROUND:

Since it the middle of the winter now, and we have not done this season as a theme yet, I think it's the right time to have winter as a theme.

THEME:

Winter, anything that showcases the season winter.

Good luck!

IMPORTANT DATES:

Entries must be submitted to this thread no later than Sunday, February 5th @ 11:59 PST. Voting begins the following day.

RULES:

1. Any interpretation of the theme that falls within Bimmerpost.com rules is welcome.
2. You must be the person that took the photo. Previous photos are acceptable as long as you are the one that captured the image.
3. One submission per contest, and you cannot resubmit a photo that you've submitted before in a previous contest.
4. Images must be no larger than 800 px in any direction. Links to larger images are allowed but you must have one that is under 800 px for the poll.
5. All contestants must host their own pictures (which includes hosting them on Bimmerpost).
6. All images must have a title.
7. While post processing in Photoshop is allowed, adding or removing parts of the picture is not. In the event a photo is suspected to be "photo-chopped," the contestant will be asked to provide the original picture.

Florida Winter

similar to one i posted in the snapshot thread, changed some editing however.

If i can find something cooler in the next week, i'll post it up as i don't like archiving too much.

Fist time tobogganing

they're here all year round.. I think i just came up with a great idea though

because it's only winter-looking in Atlanta every other year at most, this image is from a year ago:

"toboggan"

more action than winter, but just wanted to submit something.

yeah winter hasn't been very fruitful in most places this year.

Don't complain. Although if we don't get a solid freeze and some snow, it could mean problems this spring.
