Post-Processing:
Crop. Topaz Delicate filter. Adjust levels. Denoise. Auto colour correction.
Extra Info:
This was taken at the start of a heavy snowfall. The flakes build the most fantastic structures which are slowly squashed and compressed as new snowflakes fall. The light is from whatever sun can penetrate the snow clouds in the background.

The sharp part of the picture is very nice, but sadly big part of the picture is unsharp.

Like the detail in the crystals; stronger contrast would help emphasize the backlighting you had available. A slightly higher shooting angle could help too by making the crystals entirely backed by the dark shadow. and you'd be able to crop out more of the out-of-focus foreground.

A very difficult photo to take successfully. Good effort.
