Lovely duotone, the contrast of the textured logs to the smoothness of the water is wonderful.

I'm melting!!!

This seems a little over-saturated, or something. The front edge looks straight more than melting so the puddle looks frozen which doesn't seen quite right with the melting ice-blocks. I love the idea though and it certainly reminds me of my childhood but for this challenge it might have said more if it were melting on concrete or a floor. That would say more about the emotion of a child dropping their ice block than a studio looking set up, for me anyway. I do like the lighting on it and the texture of the ice-blocks.

If Only...

The title made me stop and think. If only there was a child? That's sad. I prefer to think of another option, it looks like a catalogue photo that a little boy would tear out and dream over, make wishes for and keep safe under his pillow. Technically the lighting is lovely but do iron the backdrop for basic challenges.
