I think you've done really well in every way Bambi.
The framing using the tree branches works for me as does the rest of the composition.
There's a slight blow out in the snow in spots but that would be oh so hard to avoid in that light.
Stepping back to include the fenceline Edg mentions would have been nice. I don't mind the footprints as it gives a 'I'm not abandoned' feel to it.
Good photo!
