Hmmm, an iceboat is something I've read about/seen on TV. but don't think I've seen one in person.

Intriguing! Border seems a bit too wide. ...6...

Nice ideal, wish it was a bit closer

Returning for comment.
Cool. I sail quite a bit but never on ice. There is no chance of capsizing here. Bumping up.

Imo, a horizontal shot would be e alot more dynamic here, speaking of setting sails that is important. As it is, it's a good quality picture, but it's more of a portrait of a boat, rather than something conveying energy and thrill of new things.

very cool

Sweetness! I love sailing/anything-that-has-to-do-with-it, though I have yet to try it on ice. I like the simple elegance of the shot.

too bad it was overcast this day (is that ice it's sitting on? wow) - some color and light in the sky would've done this otherwise great shot some justice.

Wow... Not so much the photo, but the concept of land-yatching on ice..... That's gotta be a huge rush.

Oh, and I like the photo as well, I think you've chosen a good crop, and you've done well in poor light. A bit more contrast would be nice, but you would have had to adjust the exposure in camera, not in PS/GIMP to do that without making it obvious. (+2/3rds of a stop compensation...)

Appears as if the boat is on ice?

A bit too grey, but cool pic.
