Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent. Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature. Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Melting Icicle
It sure was cold.
I put the d70 into continuous mode and just held the button down for about 30 seconds hoping to get a water droplet in midair as this icicle melted. When I looked at the shots back home, this was the first of the sequence of about 50 or 60 , and the best. What a waste of film.

Thank You
Matt and Glen, thanks for your comments.
I'm not happy with the shot (or the PP actually). Not sure what to do about it though. In your opinions, how can I make it better? The icicle and drop are sharp and the background is nicely out of focus, but it still doesn't leap out and grab you. Is it a contrast issue or the big slab of stone on the left?

Rotating the image 90º CCW might lend a different dimension and make the dark mass a more relevant elemement.
