Title: More Ice

A few more shots on the ice theme. 
The first is an experiment in high key and the second more conventional.

I also like the first one a lot. The high-key treatment is well suited.

The first one is my favorite, too. The high-key effect really brings home snow, ice, and cold. Nice!

The first is my favorite as well. Nice idea and execution!

Thanks much for the comments.  I prefer the first as well. 
In the first one, I found it a bit tricky to retain a range of tones in the ice and snow without ending up with a lot of grey snow. 
If you retain more tones it tends to look like a detailed pencil sketch.

The high-key is interesting.
