You've definitely captured "cold" with the blue toning. Too bad the figures weren't doing something more interesting.
03/17/2009 04:26:27 PM
very pretty ... Are they ice fishing?
03/17/2009 03:07:52 PM
Chilling image... :)
I can't help thinking 10 minutes later the guys came back with the little tents and started drilling holes in the ice.. +2

I went ice fishing this weekend, and your shot reminds me of it. I didnt catch anything though.
03/17/2009 10:48:54 AM
The landscape is so vast and so harsh looking, I'm glad I'm not one of those three, haha.
03/17/2009 06:55:12 AM
Nice capture. I like the silhouettes of the 3 figures against the cold, icy blue and that sky is stunning.
03/16/2009 11:46:03 PM
lovely.
03/16/2009 10:48:29 PM
Cold. Barren. Blue.
03/16/2009 09:53:34 PM
Great shot. It really conveys the cold.
03/16/2009 08:03:25 PM
Wonderfully sharp and the colors are fabulous. I hope this scores well.

great capture - keep up the good work
03/16/2009 02:28:41 PM
Good shot of a simple shot.
03/16/2009 12:23:53 PM

This really looks cold and desolate. It makes me glad to be in Southern California instead of Northern Minnesota where I was raised. The mid-picture horizon is risky. Maybe cropping closer to their feed and losing much of the left side would make the people more prominent and make the horizon more fit the "rules".
03/16/2009 03:42:57 AM
bit too blue for my liking
03/15/2009 03:53:51 PM
A lower POV to have the people silhouetted against the sky might have been better
03/15/2009 03:09:58 PM
I like the softness in the clouds and the strong silhouettes of the people standing on the dark spot.
03/15/2009 10:15:58 AM
Looks like the Arctic...the darkness adds to the sense of cold.
03/15/2009 09:28:15 AM
what are they doing out there ? looks cold and threatening. 6
03/15/2009 04:15:46 AM
The blue colors makes this look really cold.
03/14/2009 10:15:05 PM
cool shot, pardon the pun. Lovely tones
03/14/2009 07:30:03 PM
Nice tones. Well shot.
03/14/2009 12:55:52 PM
Looks very cold
03/14/2009 11:49:34 AM
just a little to blue...did you use a filter?
03/14/2009 07:28:59 AM
I think the colours in this are fantastic
03/14/2009 02:22:40 AM
Excellent. This small cluster of people, supporting each other against the disorientation of this immensity. I also enjoy centered horizons, especially when they are unrelieved ... makes the image a kind of secret abstract. 8.
03/13/2009 03:09:28 PM
Great composition and color.
03/13/2009 03:02:04 PM
This says {{{cold}}}!! Love the shades of blue and contrast of light ag. the darks. The three figures are very well placed. 7
03/13/2009 02:21:37 PM
Very nice portrayal of "brrrr"!
03/13/2009 01:58:15 PM
gives a good feel for the place
03/13/2009 12:49:39 PM
Wonderful sense of vastness and cold. Beautiful blues and the little bit of yellow sunlight adds visual interest. Though a candid shot, this could have been even better if the group's body posture was more dynamic, especially the guy on the left.
03/13/2009 10:58:45 AM
feels cold, but i can't decide if it would be better with the people flashed or dark. it has an interesting feeling, they look like statues
03/13/2009 09:36:04 AM
Stranded..might be a better title but it's still a great image.
03/13/2009 09:14:22 AM
Very cold and blue, as far as the eye can see!
03/13/2009 12:45:31 AM
This looks super cold!
03/12/2009 11:13:42 PM
They say that, in the cold, all men are created equal ... but they're speaking anatomically I think. This is nice and makes me believe it's brutally cold.
03/12/2009 12:13:22 PM
I know it well and don't miss it. Great sky!
03/12/2009 10:00:47 AM
Looks cold.
03/12/2009 07:16:12 AM
Interesting landscape and love the silhouettes.
03/12/2009 12:17:31 AM
Oh brrr, those guys look cold. Great job capturing the feeling of this photo.
03/11/2009 09:32:27 PM
That just looks downright cold. I like how the figures are silhouetted.
03/11/2009 07:24:13 PM
This reminds me of those old movies that feature ice fishing. It sure looks cold.
03/11/2009 07:19:19 PM
wow, looks pretty baron there, great textures in the sky
03/11/2009 07:00:03 PM
Cccoollddd !!!!!
03/11/2009 06:31:59 PM

03/11/2009 05:41:46 PM
Now that looks cold.
03/11/2009 05:32:39 PM
great mood,
03/11/2009 04:31:52 PM
looks cold
03/11/2009 09:04:40 AM
This would have been as good without the people. I love the skyline.
03/11/2009 07:54:52 AM
MMMMMM. Cold.

I like this one for some reason.
