Dark Water I
I really liked the silver and gold colors playing off the ice and water.

Looks dark and sinister to me.

This is a wonderful image! I love the colors, light, and textures.I think a small crop from the bottom would help as there's not much going on down there.

Another great ice shot. I agree with Paul's crop suggestion.

This is my favorite of your recent ice/water shots so far! Love the dark, mysterious water and the almost metallic appearance of the snow and reflections. I also agree with a small crop suggestion; maybe just about 1/8 of the image off of the bottom is all.

Really interesting shot! The crop suggestions seem solid to me, and I also wonder if you ought to try B&W. A lot of the interest here for me is in the contrast between black and silver, and I'm finding therefore that the patch of gold water is bugging me. Or you could maybe try desaturating or burning that area, some way to keep attention off it a bit. Or I might be barking up the wrong tree. It's pretty darn nice as is.
