Absolutely beautiful capture. The ice almost looks like a hand dripping water off the skin. Stare at the thumbnail and you can really see it.Wow. |

Your photo is wonderful! The dof is great and focus is very good. The drops are perfect..I don't know how much better it could get.

Originally posted by scab-lab: Definately caught in mid air Eddie :) Took me quite a bit of shots to get this, but I did this hand held. Good timing, good light, and good luck, was what it took. |
That really is an unbelievable capture, and a well-deserved ribbon. I can't believe you got this hand-held! I guess my comment about DOF was a little harsh -- looking at this picture again, I see that the points of all 3 icicle tips are in-focus, which now that I study it some more, I really like! Awesome work as always Gary.  |

Originally posted by EddyG: If you really caught two perfect drops in mid-air, this is an amazing capture. If the dripping water was added in after the fact, a lot less impressive. I really like the smooth gradient background. I can see how the shallow DOF accentuates certain parts of the icicle, but I would have preferred to see more of it in clearer focus, since the majority of it is out of focus... |

The colors here really add to the coldness of the ice. Great capture of the water droplets. Focus and lighting are excellent. Well Done. |

Lovely capture. Good colour, nice DOF and my favoured kind of shape. Those drops almost give your set-up away but not quite! Very cool shot! ;) |

I find the wide border to be a bit overwhelming - my eyes are continuously drawn away from the subject to the white of the border. I would like to have seen the entire icicle in nice sharp focus. The composition is interesting. Good catch on those droplets! |

Great timing! The contour of the icicle leads the eye to the drops, which are beautifully shaped. Nice color too. |

I really like this one a lot. The way the water drop just let go of the icicle to the well blurred background. Excellent job! |

Love the mix of the ice and free falling water. Blurred background is very effective indeed, and the plain border is a bonus. Excellent. |
