Excellent in all regards. I like how you kept the contrast between the icicles and the background despite the same blue color. I am curious to see the b/w version. Great work. Bravo.

The one on the left looks a bit soft near the top, but what really attracts me here is the long stem that anchors the image at the bottom. Beautiful! Good conversion too, Mike! You are getting good at this!

Hi Mike

It also looks like a Portuguese man-o-war tentacle. Excellent sharpness, & I like the monochromatic blue color. Well done!

BONJOUR MIKE!
La simplicité de cette photo est tout simplement éblouissante! Pureté, c'est le mots qui me vient tout de suite à l'esprit! C'est très agréable à regarder, et c'est formidable de voir comment tu as réussi à mélanger la dureté du froid avec la tendresse des textures et des couleurs.
MERCI A TOI!

Hi Mike,

Sparkling photo! Excellent icicle experiment. The blue colour tones seem to enhance the detail of the ice. Makes it look razor sharp.
I really enjoy your experimentations.
Keep up the great work! :)

Hi Mike,

Your experiment turned out very well my friend, I like the way you have captured the running water and the drip just before it drops. Excellent timing and well done on the PP.

Now why did I miss this beauty before ? Heck, I'm ashamed, Mike. The backdrop with those blurred colour shifts is magnificent, it makes the picture almost painting-like.
Terrific. TFS
