I initially had my eye on the lone tree, standing out from the snow, in mind when I noticed a figure encroach upon the space. There's a four lettered word that describes my feelings at the time and it wasn't the word "good". I thought, OK just wait until he walks away...suddenly he pulls out a camera and walks towards the tree. He was chasing a similar shot as me but from a different angle - a lone tree in silhouette against the snow. I though then that I'd just work with it - he added scale to the shot - the tree is very short.
