That's great! It gets the fresh-snow sparkle down wonderfully. 
Well done, LightBeam!

Thank you all ;-)
I promise that I will release the snow code soon when my scene will be 
finished.

It looks absolutely real to me...the "too blue" comments are directed at the
fact that you almost never see a clear, azure, summery sky over
fresh-fallen snow, and hence by making your sky-sphere overcast you'll have
less blue for the snow to reflect.

Some of these people don't know what snow looks like, I think.. the 
lighting is fine (maybe a little purplish but I won't complain). The 
little sparkles look great.

Only complaint I'd make is the shape of the snow. It LOOKS fresh, but 
fresh snow is usually smoother than this, unless the surface underneath 
is seriously torn up.

Granted, someone suggested that kids had played in it and then a fresh 
layer covered their tracks, and that's a plausible explanation.

The snow could be covering many kinds of uneven surface especially grass 
or clumped grass.  This snow has been exposed to a strong sun during the 
afternoon such that the uppermost of the layer has melted slightly 
leaving a crystaline crust.  That would also account for the slightly 
sunk in look that the smaller scale lacework of bumps gives to it.

I've been making some snow too, but my snow is just so-so... :-P

Had to go back and tweak mine, to try and make it look as good as yours.
Those sparkles are NICE!
