Martin,

Liked very much your "Winter in Columbus," particularly the vertical vs
horizontal organization of the composition, and the near/far juxtaposition.
There are also some nice visual "echos" (the arches of the bridge and the
inverted arches of the hanging chain of the fence; the blocks of the
buildings in the distance and the heavy posts of the fence in the
foreground), and some interesting textures (the smooth snow and the rough
rocks/clunky chain links).

What camera/lens combo did you use? How about film? How did you meter, with
all that bright snow around?
