Good composition, lovely color, sharpness, and exposure - the softness of the water is an interesting contrast to the hard edges of the ice. I'm looking forward to the exposure details.

The lighting and the movement in this image appealed to me. You have captured a very 'mystical' moment - even if it only a creek and a street light. Looks fantastic.

Amazing texture to the water! 9

Beautiful! The snow is captured perfectly!

Love the reflection off the frozen water..
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/14/2005 05:37:20 PM
The noise in this shot spoils the silkiness of the water a bit but the composition is great.

Oh cool - has that cyanide color. Very pretty with the gray blue snow! I like it. 7

Wow, what great lighting. NIce shot
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/14/2005 01:27:19 PM
Very nice. I can almost hear the crunching of the snow underfoot. My favorite part is the water and shadows in the bend of the river. Good luck in the challenge.

  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very nice photograph. I really like how the light reflects on the cottony water. Excellent!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/14/2005 04:37:42 AM
Pretty golden glow. Sharp sparkle of the snow and ice. Nice one.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/14/2005 03:39:37 AM
nice soft image. Only comment might be a slight burn where the light hits the snow. Thats a strong reflection

I have done a few 9's on this challenge and only one 10 this one maby a little over exposed in the top left but I think a tighter crop could have taken away from the photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/13/2005 10:10:55 PM
This is a super fine image, and I like the tones and textures very much......well done.
