Thanks for the thoughtful critique, Adam...My only response re the snow
on the window comment is that when you see the print, you see incredible
detail in the snow flakes, which I think works. My other thought is that
the blurred snow would be a bit of a visual cliché, no?

My favorite is Alt1 - the splash of color from the tail lights takes
what essentially feels like a black and white image and SURPRISE it's in
color. I like how that works.

The traffic signals in soft focus with the snow doesn't quite come
together for me. I think it's because it's snow on the window and not
falling snow so somehow it's more static. I think if it were falling
snow frozen in flight then I'd like it better.
