Greetings from the Critique Club!

Very nice shot, though possibly has too many elements for a truly Minimalist challenge. Still, the light is great (don't think you needed quite such a high ISO but oh well) and I know exactly how the water rose and fell, immersing the frozen drops of water off the branch each time, until they turned into these shapes. So capturing this when the water was still and mirrorlike is very good timing on your part.

I have to disagree with the commenter who suggested that you should have cropped closer on the right. However I would have suggested cropping out some of the upper left, where it's starting to get a little overexposed, but it's your image and how you choose to present it. I also think this would look great in b/w.

Anyway, you did an excellent job and the commenters love you, so please keep entering and keep up the great work!

I really like the composition and the appearance of this photograph. It does seem to have more noise in the sky than I usually like but in this situation it doesn't bother me that much.

This is just a little too abstract for my liking. But hey, that's personal taste

A good picture. But I don't think this subject works well for this challenge.
