Matt, I think you've got an excellent idea here. But the composition isn't complete. Meaning, I've seen this done countless times successfully; some of the best landscapers on the planet use this type of comp - foreground with icicles. Near, and mid ground seems fine, but missing a good subject. You could throw in a sunstar to make it more compelling, but I think what it really needs it something on the horizon that completes the scene - a gnarly tree, peak, some birds flying in a V... just something to give it edge.
