Struggled with choosing the point of focus here after the fact, but I liked crunching down the blacks and adding a yellow cast.

The soft snow removes any detail in the tops of the rocks, and "crunching down the blacks" removes any detail in the shadows. What am I left with? By your own admission, there is no point of focus.
Thanks again for your time- what I meant by "focus" was one of the rocks- the strong blacks do draw the eye to the rocks which was as intended, but within the three rocks, I couldn't make the center rock the clear focal point or the foreground rock the focal point. As this was a color grade contest, keeping everything dark overall with just a bit of yellow cast was aimed at an overall mood. With that in mind, any thoughts on better execution of my intent?
