Description
I am really not sure about this one.. C&C?Thought I'd update a description with a bit of background. I really liked the tones the low light right after sunset created, but in order to capture that properly and make the water blurry I would've needed a tripod and of course didn't have one with me.
So I had to use what I had; my gloves and a rock, to balance the camera and it didn't leave me much choice with the composition.
I also tried different kind of crops of the photo in PS, but in the end decided this original looked best.
I really appreciate all your input!

wow täähän hieno! Musta ja tummasininen sopii hyvin tässä yhteen.
Olisin luultavasti itse kuvannut enemmän macro tyyliin.

Nice image, the focus seems right in this image. A nice contrast between the crispness of the ice/branch and the fuzzy flowing of the water. I wish I could give constructive critique, but this image is perfect as it is. Nature at it's most beautiful.

wow, that's really cool. We never see that sort of stuff here!
I think I'd rather have all the messy twig stuff cropped, but then it makes it a very skinny shot

Yeah, I tried to crop this in all possible ways really, but finally I decided this original worked best.
Thanks, Karen!

Well, it's the shot I've been trying to take without success.
I would like to be able to see the tips of the twigs, though I don't know what else what would pull in.

Yeah.. I would've preferred a portrait format myself I think, that would include the tips as well. But this was pretty much a composition created out of necessity as I didn't have a tripod with me and had to balance the camera on a rock..
Thanks for commenting!

I think this is pretty I like the shadow of the icicles that falls on the water.
