To be honest, it doesn't look a lot different to me.
This is sharper, but "sharp" can easily be overdone.
However, the problem isn't sharpness, it's that the (important) head is blending in with background; the rest is Ok like the trailing edges which have good contrast against the background.

I tried to fix the head after I sharpened it.
Thanks

Nothing special I just liked the reflection in the water.

Maybe you could "clone out" more of the snow to leave a cleaner head outine.

Great Image, Frank. Reflections are often keepers.
Although the muted greys work well, maybe you could go back on a Spring evening/morning for a more colourful one in addition.

Look at the Lampost. Now you see it, now you don't, as it were.

Very nice image. Is it a fox hunt?

I tried to darken the sky and building and I removed the shoreline.
