good shot, but a close-up is not a very unusual perspective IMO

I always wondered where they got those bags of ice at the convenience stores... ;)

Yeah, that is cold looking. Horizon looks very slightly wonky but that may just be me or the way the land is..

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: You've really created something interesting in your capture of this scene. The fall of the light on the crystalline ice and the change in colour towards the bottom of that element is highly compelling.

Critical stuff: Not much at all really.

Overall: Nice image, good to see something so pretty from a simple sheet of glass.

This is a very pretty blend of light, color and textures. The scene looks like an abstract elephant with a tree in the background.

This would be great with a little more sky. It would be neat if you could stitch two shots together to create a bigger scene! But this is very awesome in itself.
