I agree, you have some very beautiful light reflecting on the ice!

Albert,

The colors in the ice are very pleasing. I don't know if you did it on purpose, but the tree at the top center points back down at the ice and makes my eye flow back into the image. well done.

Albert,

Wonderful reflection with the ice creating some gentle abstracts and detail.  Speaking of detail, does this appear a little soft to anyone?  Color and processing looks spot on to me.  The only suggestion I have is to remove/clone that tiny bit of shore in the URC.  Also, while not really a distraction, I might do the same and try to avoid the bit of shore? in the LRC.  Cropping of course is always subjective, but for sure I would crop/clone the URC.

Albert, I agree the small part in the urc is a bit of a distraction. Other than that this is really nice. I like the reflected colors very much and you also have some very nice texturs. Good work!

Real nice reflections with the warm and cool tones. I like Lon's suggestions about the shore. Either crop or clone?

Here is the  cloned version,  i  think a crop  on top would have weakened the composition


comments appreciated

This is a fine image, Albert. I like it very much the repost fixed the minor problem you had. It's not really sharp, especially further back, but this is not an image where sharpness is a major deal. BTW the smaller version looks noticeably better than the large due to the presence of a frame.
