Willow Falls
Another ice shot. We had over a month of very cold weather which finally broke this weekend. It was actually above freezing for a couple of days. I drove over to Willow River State Park just to get out of the house. I figured that the river would be completely frozen but much to my surprise there was quite a bit of water running.

I really like the color in this one. Usually I would like to see it "warmed" a bit, but this looks great! :smile:

I like the shot, like the motion of the water with the stability of the ice. The color is fine with me.

The blue color really helps this to feel cold. Well done.

I really like the ice versus flow dynamic. The highlights on the edges of the ice formations add a very nice, subtle contrast that really add to the overall scene. Well seen and captured.

Beautiful winter scene, Phil! The combination of ice and (soft) water makes this image for me.
