What a great photo, you definitely brought our attention to something we might have over looked and turned into art.

I think your bucket idea is fabulous and insightful! It definitely made me see this image differently and think about my approach to photography.

Hi Salvatore, How can mentioning the bucket “ruin it” if it is such a great idea?

Looks great, Neil, but you didn’t have to ruin it with the bucket! Great Idea though!

Hi Stacey,
Maybe you can find some ice at high elevations near you? Good luck!

Gorgeous … lovely idea too … I have an old metal pot (large, about 3 foot high and wide) that houses 3 goldfish and although we have very very few days of icing over in winter I keep an eye out for such opportunities … i am yet to find one as blue and active as yours here … luverly

Hi Bill, I like the ice images. Don’t know if I will get to shoot much ice this year. Pretty mild up here in the NW now, but there is time. If it does get cold I will have to remember to put out my own water containers.
