Today on Striding Edge, Lake District.

You have gone against the conventional wisdom, which would dictate the elevation of scene contrast.

In a sense you are right.
The scene was a near whiteout, I did actually add quite a lot of contrast.
Maybe I should have added more.

Depends what you are trying to convey, the title is 'Blizzard' which is what the image conveys to me very nicely, the air is full of flying snowflakes, by definition a blizzard tends to be low contrast.

A snowscape in good visibility would probably demand fairly high contrast?

Bjørn Rørslett:
I'm troubled more by the title of the photograph than the picture itself. Frankly, no blizzard is perceived as such by me.

I do see a snow scene with a restricted tonal range and fairly low contrast, a depiction which of course is entirely acceptable on its own. But blizzard? No way.
