Kudos. You have done this very well indeed in trying conditions. I particularly enjoy the cracked ice leading to the harbour, great textures and patterns. I'm southern hemisphere and hate any cold. Without the explanation I'd be hard pressed to see a double exposure.

I love the layers of ice and the buildings look a bit ghostly. It's a neat affect and works well here. The dark border offsets the white subject nicely.

Oh Helsinki ... one of my favorite cities :-). I was there a couple of years ago at the beginning of February, expecting to see something like you show in this image, and we had almost no snow at all :-(. So dissapointing for a tourist like me :-). Hence this image is very nice to see, now I know what I missed :-). Really like it, but then I like abstract type of images. I love that "double" sky-line of the city. The whole thing has a VERY cold feel to it.

Oh, I can see some good possibilities with your theme! This is a very good start. I love the overlapping ice layers creating that interesting pattern.

It definitely looks cold, very cold. The feeling of "shaky" created by the multiple superimposed exposures intensifies the feeling of cold I think. I like how the ice at bottom edge does not look multi, it leads the eye into the picture quite beautifully.

Very interesting theme choice. Sounds like it would be fun to try. It looks very cold. This has an old world feel to it that I find very interesting.

The woman is a surprise find, big contrast to the big portraits. I like that she is almost out of frame.

I'm reading the comments about the historical, fifties feel this one has and wondering. Is this an office still in use or a set-up in a museum. The two things that fascinate me are the plastic bag plunked down on the desk and the woman - I am trying to make both of them fit and failing.
