This was a shot at Willow Falls on a cold December day.

Excellent textures even in the snow.. Wish I had falls near me.. I'm sure there are a few small ones around.. In the meantime it sure is nice to see them here.. The blue icyness is a nice touch.. :cool:

Very nice, Phil! I like the juxtaposition of the "frozen" water flow in the ice, and then the flow that you've "frozen" with your camera with the longer exposure...

Good work,

Tim!

What great textures here, Phil. Looks like a bear claw. I agree with Tim that you've done a good job reflecting the ice flow in the water flow. Only suggestion I have would be to lighten it slightly to make the high ends "pop" a little.

Very nice composition and ice formation here Phil! I agree that the white point might need some adjustment (could be my work monitor though).

I'd like to see this a little lighter too, Philip, but it's beautiful as is! :smile:

Thanks for the comments. I lightened it up a bit. How does the new version look?
