Really cool, Dave! pun intended: nice image, cold colors, cold feeling. So all of the rain in the Northwest and No Cal has not translated to a decent snow pack? :frown:

Neat close up view of this iced over rock, Dave. The speckles of ice along the back edge are a fine addition and I really the the mist in the background and the touch of falling water for context. Well seen.

Nice warm tones in the rock Dave. I really like the cauldron feel to the boiling waters behind the central focal point.

Very interesting mood.

I really enjoy this one! It's a bit "weird", but in a very good way. The very nice ice pattern contrast well with the flowing water, while the warm and cold tones add another interesting pattern. Well seen!

Very interesting and very other-worldly, Dave! Nicely composed and exposed. Great choice for the challenge.
