 Lit by two blacklights and a flash. Blacklight makeup and a long exposure caused the light trails. Editting was almost nothing.. Increased black levels, sharpened, resized.

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.
