Very nice work Ben.
If I might be so bold, as to suggest some items that, I believe could improve the scene.
In the market place, there are some nice snow-covered firs and pines that will add a bit of realism to the scene. Also
some bushes would help, especially where the tree meets the ground to mask the flat line where the trunk meets the snow.
Search the marketplace and turbosquid for grass so that you can have blades sticking up through the snow. (be sure to color them brown,
it's winter and they will not all have color.
I suggest a light blue rim light to add some 'cold' to the snow and also to break up the white. I think a little darker shadow will
bring out the undulations of the ground more and add a bit more depth to scene in general.
I hope you don't mind my suggestions, and that you'll consider them, as I feel this scene could yet be improved to be more striking.
