Thanks Shootin1st and eL eSsVee. That is one of my most favorites too!

All great shots- hard for me to pick a favorite.

The diagonal lines from your watermark is distracting, though. Sometimes it seems like it's a part of the photo.

Another vote for #2! Beautiful images.

Great series!!

2 & 3 are my favorites.

My only nit pick is that I would like to see the ice in #2 a little lighter. It has such an awesome shape and flow to it, but my eye keeps getting drawn away to the lighter parts of the image. Maybe if it was a little lighter, the viewer could remain focused on it a bit more.

Thanks!, me to, hence so many photos...

Yeah I haven't found out yet how to link a photo from my site to here without my watermark on it (aside from taking the watermark off the photo on my site, linking the photo on here, then replacing the watermark, which is a lot of work)

Yeah I couldn't lighten it up too much w/o blowing out the sky, unless I spent a bunch of time in photo shop cutting out, adjusting, re-pasting, etc...(which I don't have very much experience in PS with so it would have been ugly and took forever to do). Plus I really like the way the reflection looks in the ice just near the edge where it meets the sky, that's where my eye tends to take me.

Thanks everyone for all your comments!

Those are really cool! Unique subjects. My favorite is #2. It's like a naturally occurring piece of sculpture, great colors too.
