Personally, I think the images is near perfect. It is actually intriguing, unique, and not your typical "I've seen that shot before". While a lot of times you'll see photos that are "artsy/unique" they often loose out in composition. This photo, though has them both. Compositional it is perfect, so much interest, great understanding of the shutter and depth. I don't get this one, should have scored in the sixes.
If I had to name one thing (hey I always put in my meager 1 cent), would be to crop off a smidgen of top just before the ice heads back to the left, this way you get a clean line to the top of the frame. Even then that is minor. Silly voters. |

| I love how the icicles are just hanging on by a thread. I keep looking to see if they are going to fall yet. Nicely done! |

Oh no, giving a critique on another CC member! Here goes...
The composition is ok but it took me a while to realise that not only are the icicles a main element in the image but thats actually running water below them! I think this would have been missed by many voters which would have had them doing what I first did: saying "I don't get the title in relation to the image".
The light's a tad harsh up top. B&W is ok but I wonder how a bit of a blu tint would have gone. Often ice has a blue hue to it and that may have made the image jump out at people a bit more.
I'd suggest a tighter crop to focus more on the icicles and with titles, I like to err towards hitting voters over the head rather than having to rely of them thinking too much :)
Good stop motion on the water. An image with plenty of potential.
PM me if you have any questions |

| The way you shot this makes it seem as if the water isn't frozen at all, nice technique! |
