Negative clarity to soften some details.

Taken last Tuesday.

Beautiful work. In the 3rd and 4th images, the vignetting seems a tad aggressive but that's your aesthetic choice.

Thanks, Gents.

Yes, I might cut back that vignetting a bit.

Thanks, Jeremy and David.

I should admit that the idea of softening the images arose while I was taking them. It was very cold and windy, and my eyes kept tearing up, so I couldn't tell if I was focused correctly.

Here are new versions of #3 and #4, with less vignetting.
Additional comments/suggestions are welcome.

I love the natural sculptures… I have yet to find a favorite but the whole set is very nice.

Good seeing. Ice can be a tricky subject!

Good seeing. Ice can be a tricky subject!
Especially if you try walking on it! (I didn't.)
Thanks Matt.

Thanks Matt.

I get my feet wet doing that every now and then. In our climate that means it's time to go home!

Even better. I especially like the symmetry in #3.

Thank you, Scott.
I must admit that I do occasionally produce symmetry in Photoshop, but this was natural.   ;)

These are great, and take a true eye, and talent to compose, crop, edit, and produce. Well done.
