Very nice! An excellent image. Interesting ice---I like the slight blue coloring and overall texture it has. Also, the water is perfectly placed, IMO, and well framed by the surrounding ice.

The water/rocks are so separated from the ice, almost like the ice is several feet away from the rocks, the image holds your attention for quite a long time. BTW, the large version presents this the best. Would love to see this printed LARGE! TFS...

Rainer, your image makes for a supranatural feeling to me. The diverse textures complement each other amazingly, and the monochromatic character is consistent with the icy atmosphere of this scene to my eye. I enjoy exploring all the details in the larger version.
