Description really emotional piece for me.

it feels as even though I keep on trying, and trying, in the end I always get pushed down by the coldness; of you.

It's a beautiful image with a beautiful meaning... I only wish it was a little sharper... Great photo, nonetheless!!!

a very beautiful piece.
the aqua really brings out the coldness of this photograph, the ice is an added bonus for me. the maple leaf reminds me of winter and snow, so you've brought all things that represent "cold" together and presented them well, great composition.
But I agree with a comment above that says the closest ice cube should be nice and focused.
I know what it is like to be cold to someone, so this sparks a few memories for me.

Wow... absolutely breathtaking, amazing clarity, goregeous tones. Love the way the blues of the background meld peacefully with the reds/oranges of the leaf. Stunning great composition and balance of simple elements.. there is definately meaning to this photo and it comes through beautifully. BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO.. instant FAV

Great picture... You should get rid of the vignetting at the corners though. This would really improve if it was ultra sharp too. This would be a potential favourite otherwise.

it's really cool (*haha*) but the DOF could be bigger, at least the front of the first ice-cube should be sharp. everything else is perfect, nice color combination especially

it looks like the change of seasons...
it can be viewed in many ways though..
from draught to the melting point..
it's one eye catching piece.. esp. with the dry and liquid colors...
good contrasts in terms of photographic language and story telling for me.

Magnificent! I like how the general blueness of the background and the...ice cubes, are they?...brings out the red-orangeyness of the leaf. Good job.
