In winter's cold light

I love the reflection of the sunlight on the icy water. I also like the contrast between the life of the trees and the death of the ice and yet, that the sunlight is what keeps life going. Quite deep! I so hope that other voters see all of this in this shot and not bypass these details!

Don't you wonder WHAT they think about? I'll bet it's not the stock market! LOL

Really cute shot with great texture captured in this one's fur. I'm wondering if perhaps, it might have too much space around it but, then again, the background is pretty interesting.

Wow, Jo....this is such a beatiful shot and well excuted! I don't "get" how one city night shot can win a ribbon while another one (this one) can score so much lower??? To me, this was as well shot as the ribbon winner and certainly not explainable as to the difference in scores?? It's beyond me and I think that you were robbed score wise. Seems that the "non-participants" had a hand in pulling down this score. Then, again, non-participants may not understand the difficulty in getting such a shot.

Very beautiful with the sky and reflections. Seems that you were lucky to have found sand at all! :) 9

I really like this as it's quite abstract yet, very artsy at the same time. LOVE the lighting on this and the B&W works very well! 10

Very abstract! Love the lighting on this and the fact that it isn't the usual type of scenery! Nicely done! 10
