Jumbled Ice
Here is another from the recent ice storm. The ice on this frozen bush had just started to melt. Is it to jumbled/chaotic? Something about the lines draw me in, but I'm not sure on the overall effect. Thanks for looking.

Rob, I think you do have potential here. Where my mind is taking me is that a layer to convert this to B/W then mask and paint back in the single colorful bud UL. I think if it was placed in an 8 ply black matte with white core it would make a very nice (almost abstract) image. Just my $.02 worth. :smile:

Rob, I like this image. I see why you took the shot, and I think jumbled and chaotic is the whole point here. The icicles form a pattern against which the limbs stand out. Keep 'em coming!

Rob - I can see why you were interested in this, but to me, it just kind of dissolves into static. Too much info for my eye to process, I guess.
