Absolutely brilliant creation here. The reason I find this image utterly riveting is because it makes the small look big and the big look small. Both at first glance and through many glances thereafter, I kept thinking of this scene as an aerial view of a landscape, consisting of grass and snow! This, for me, is the pinnacle of seeing and executing what is seen.
As for nits, the whites could have been a bit less luminescent (for my taste only), but I'm not sure whether you could really have achieved the dynamic range to expose everything in the frame on an even keel. Thanks for sharing what will remain one of the most memorable images from you in my view.
