Description Feb 2007:

A good sky and an odd 5-foot high piece of ice together with mist on the water and a great sunrise this morning...

who says winter is dull?

Well there is certainly nothing to critique because I see that you have a great camera and a great eye and you must live in an area that has interesting enough things to photograph. This is wonderful!

Looks great. I'd've zoomed in on the tower of ice & eliminated any frame of reference for size. That'd've been cool.

The white frame's nice.

Also, d'you know if it's possible to...

1. Turn a deviation into a scrap.

2. Un-make a print.

wb-skinner In reply to TeraLink [2007-02-12 01:46:02 +0000 UTC]

I did that too.. but liked this one better because of the sky ...

..just edit your deviation and change the category to 'scraps' ... for the print de-activate, there's an 'update prints' link in your massage center on the right.. then choose 'your products' link

This is so heavenly. Honestly, this is one of the most amazing photos I've ever come across. I can't stop looking at it! You've made this cold weather seem so warm, it looks like a hot but frozen spring. The focus is fantastic, and the blurred background is what really makes it in my opinion. This so deserves a DD.
