Good composition. I wish the small bubbles were in better focus.

odd, and not really attractive, or interesting. what is with the arm motion? does it imply something? by the title I suspect old man winter touching frost to a rose blossom... wrong season, poorly chosen arm. insensible blur.

Wish there was more blue coming off your hand. But still, this is a great image.

To make the arms white, I think it would look better to use paint (facepaint from Halloween or something). Right now it kind of looks like a toilet-paper mummy is coming after the flower. I also think it would have worked well to spray the flower with something to make it shiny, like it was being frozen (which I think is the idea here). Cool idea, nice lighting effects, wish I could do that! Also would say to leave more room between the bottom of the glass and the frame.

I like it. Fine concept and well executed. One of those pics that would do well on a wall as well as on a stockphoto site. 9

Great idea and nicely done. Not too crazy about the background though - 5

Aren't they all at the moment :)
I like the way that the copper works with the background colour.

love the slumping pils of pennies at the end, great lighting, would have liked to see a slightly different pov to add interest. 7

I think a tighter crop would have really improved this
