Another very interesting and artistic image, Todd. The red on black works really well, and the pattern of the ice is exceptional. I like the comp as well. Nicely done.

I really like the subject and the comp on this photo, Todd! The strawberry is placed just right IMO and the diagonal ridges in the ice also really add to the interest and flow of this photo. Wonderful find! My only suggestion would be to spice up the colors a little bit to give this even more wow power.

Hi Carolyn :wavey: Yeah I thought it needed something (color) too but I didn't like anything I tried. Thanks everybody for your comments.

Todd:
This is fabulous! Kind of abstract. Love the graphical lines and the color contrast between the red leaves and the surround frozen ground. It like some form of etching or coppor tooling. :toast:
