This image has a certain freshness about it, new fallen snow in a pastoral scene.  We see the young man leading the two horses and his dog there to assist with the task.  There are still a few autumn leaves clinging to the trees telling us that one season has past and another begins.

The brightly colored jacket of the man imposed on the dark horse makes him standout all the more.  The three houses in the back ground lets us know that this is a normal day in the life of the community.  The lighting is flat but adds to the flavor of a winter day.  This is a true Currier and Ives illustration.

The photographer may want to crop out much of the foreground snow fall.  It is not clean and detracts from the pristine feeling of the rest of the photograph as well as there is nothing of interest  the foreground can tell us.  Another item that might be eliminated is the few green branches on the right hand edge.  I would try to remove any small bits of things that protrude into the frame.
