•  Info Himmelsrasta (a compound word, himmel:heaven and rast:break) is a mountain home in Ljungdalen (Jämtland County, Sweden) built by swedish artist Paul Jonze in the 1940s consisting of two houses and a tradtionell Sami goahti (in the foregrund here). As a young artist Jonze worked with many leading architects and was 1909 commissioned to make an inventory of items of rural culture by the Association for Jämtlands Handicrafts (and he found the Överhogdal tapestries). He spent his last twenty years in Himmelsrasta and today he is best known for his mountain landscape paintings. The property is unique because it is located high up in the mountains, well above the tree line and with no roads and only reachable by foot in the summer or by cross country skiing or snowmobile in the winter. I chose, of course, skiing (as an eco-friendly photographer).

•  Neutral I feel it is a bit dark; snow should not be this grey. Composition-wise, I think there's a little too much on the bottom. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 01:02, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

  Beyond my support, I do agree with those two points of critique. I think some editing changes could make it even better. — Julian H.^✈(talk/files) 17:58, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

  Thank you for support and comments. I will try tomorrow.--ArildV (talk) 18:08, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

  New lighter version uploaded. Sorry but I dont think I agree with the crop suggestion, I tried but I was not happy. Its already a 16x9 crop with 1/3 foreground.--ArildV (talk) 20:58, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
