This is crazy good! I'm surprised it's so underscored. I gave it a 9.

Almost abstract - the layers are fascinating. I'm not sure it would have been as interesting without the tilt - which means this was an excellent choice for the challenge.

It's one of the best photos of the contest, but the tilt may be too extreme.

I guess you have to be there... no shots like this in SoCal. Beautiful detail and color... great setup - 9

Took my breath away. I love the colors and harsh diagonals.

A gorgeous scene, but the tilt seems done simply to meet the challenge and does not add any impact to it. I honestly think the scene would be be better in the normal manner. I do like the texture of all the broken ice and the water alternating with each other. I'd love to see some non-tilted shots from this session.

One of the best i have seen so far. great detail and color. the many tones of blue and white give great richness to the photo.

I'm not sure about the use of tilt here, but I definitely love the lines created by the ice, waves, water and birds. I suppose tilting allowed you to show more of those in more detail though, so it worked to your advantage.

Wow... you caught those light houses sliding just in time!!! lol. The artifacts in the sky/background are distracting, and parts are alittle grainy, but nice photo!

Great image. Not sure if this much tilt is required for this image... I would have stopped half-way (like around 30 deg), so that it not too much tilted and also doesnot look like a horizon tilted by mistake :)

The angle doesn't really add anything to the picture; it just seems like you took it at that angle to meet the challenge. It doesn't fit the spirit of the challenge, where the angle is supposed to contribute. In fact, the angle takes away from this image.

Great colors. I really like the different shades of blue and white.

i like this almost abstract landscape. nice exposure controlling bright snow.

I really like this one (makes me feel cold just looking at it). I wonder what it would have looked like if you had filled the entire frame with just the ice and water - I think it would have made a super cool abstract of diagonal lines.

This is a cool (no pun intended) shot. The contrast is awesome. The tilt seems a bit extreme to me though. Hmmm, how to judge it?
