The Drip Line
This was probably no more than 100 ft from my last shot taken in San Jacinto State Park and before it snowed. I liked the way the sun scrapped across the scene and backlit the ice.

As always, any comments, suggestions or critiques are always welcomed.

Cheers!

Eric, this is one large hunk of ice. I think your approach with the bit of back lighting was the best idea. Overall, the composition does work well from this angle and the isolation of the subject matter too.

What a fantastic composition! I'd be interested in seeing what it would look like with more contrast.....

I like the comp and conversion here, Eric. My only suggestion would be to possible bring out some of the highlights in the ice to make it stand out a little more.
