Magnolia Tree in Snow (Closeup)

Yesterday I took some photographs of the magnolia tree in the deep, deep snow. Today I cropped this image out of the original photograph. Then I used the retouch tool in iPhoto to get rid of some extraneous stems and leaves. Then I opened the image in Painter and used some digital pastel to clean up the remaining marks, leaving only the branches of the magnolia tree. The buds are visible against the snow, a reminder that spring is inevitable.
