Red chair in the Norwegian snow

Red chair in Norwegian snow. Kristiansand, Norway.
The finished piece
The chair
Too precious to take outside. This is the shot I used to retouch.
The setting
I ran past this a few times and thought it would make a great picture, especially in snow. So, late last Sunday night I shot up there in the wind and wild snow to catch it un-spoilt of activity.
I really like the drunken angles of the light post. I also like the way the light is cast around and up into the trees.
Foot print elements
Here are some pictures I took few years back in mid winter on the south coast of Norway. I lifted some footprints and worked them into this new image. 
I liked the stagger in the steps as they were worked into their new environment.
 
Here are some more foot prints from the same place and time. You can see how magestic the sunset was in the colour of the snow. 
Detail
I wanted to make it appear that a person had sat there for a short time and walked away. 
I hope you like it!
