A little winter gold

It took a little more than my standard processing to get this ice to play along. Shot it for the tree lined sunset, but the ice turned out to be the thing for me.

Nice color and texture, Brad.

Nice, Brad. Whatever you've done, the results look natural. The reflections in the water are sweet too.

Beautiful shot. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome! Really like the light and the ice.

I might be tempted to crop the house and maybe just a bit off both the top and bottom to focus more on the ice and the treeline.

Good eye.

Nice reflections in the ice. I like it a lot Brad.

Very nice Brad. Maybe crop a bit off the left although it is not a major distraction, just might make the image even better.

Nice Brad, beautiful color and texture.

Brad, the golden color is fantastic. Very interesting image.

I really like the scene you captured here Brad. You mentioned doing some extra processing on this one ... is it my eyes or are there some green tones in the fg ice?

Hi Wayne, yeah there are some green tones in the foreground ice. The greenish mossy color next to the bank in the shallow water came through slightly. I did a selective color adjustment and did desaturate it a bit, I didn't completely remove it because it then looked just dark grey.

Oh that does explain it ... and by the way, I like the green tones. They are an unexpected and interesting element. Thanks for the explanation.
