Craig, hope you have some state of the art photos of the valley as well. Nice composition, though with the frost and the two tripods and tree. My only remark would be that the one leg of the left tripod is only partially included in the plane. Well seen....
Sorry to mark down the "emotional appeal" on such a beautifully lit and well-composed scene, but I really don't find camera tripods appealing. Otherwise, though, it's positively gorgeous. Love those subtle colours. Don't let anyone convince you that they're "washed out" or need a saturation boost. I've been there, seen them, and this is exactly how I remember them looking. Really,really beautiful.
