This time, the theme is: Ice

 

Rules:

- One entry per person.

- Picture has to be made by yourself and can't be just a reproduction of someone's work. If someone else's work is in the picture, there needs to be something extra.

- No manipulation besides basic photo adjustments (contrast, exposure, cropping, color balance, lighting, etc.).

- No text or framing in the photo. A signature/watermark is just fine, but it's preferable if you don't have "O Hai Eye Hav3 T3XT" (or something similar) present in the photo.

- When voting, please don't select your own image. This will ensure fairness.

- You are free to submit an old photo; you don't need to take a new one just for this competition.

- Winner hosts the next contest.

No entries yet ? Did I do it wrong ?

[Ruby Eyes]

Waiting for ice to pop up

 

[Fuzzbucket]

Ya know - cocktails.... freezers.... popsicles.... I thought it was delightfully BROAD ! (we have players in the Antipodes...)

 

Thanks though - I wondered if I'd not set it up right !

Waiting to get on laptop! No ice photos on my phone. Not much ice in the Bahamas at all but I did go to Canada one winter!

[Fuzzbucket]

You got no ICECUBES in the Bahamas ?  That would be a MUST HAVE for me !

I thought about that after I posted! I like my water room temp, though.

[Little-Star]

Reason you should not live in Canada in winter. Took me an hour to deice my car that day.

Fair comment - one of us had to go to a meeting the other night; after scraping the car, he got 3km up the MAIN HIGHWAY and it took him 45 minutes to get home !

The rules say one entry per person, so please pick one before the closing date, sh20000sh. Excuse pickiness, but I'm new to this stuff.

@sh20000sh- please do pick one of yours before the deadline - or I will have to do it for you.

They did - the first one!

Oops - thanks. Sorry @sh20000sh

Hello dear talented photographers.

 

I have to be away on a family matter and I doubt if I can set up the votes on a tablet (let's face it, I know I can't). So I am of necessity  changing the cut off date for entries to the last day I am on my PC - November 28th. Sorry for any inconvenience, but otherwise I'd not be able to do it till well into December - and there haven't been any new entries in a few days.

[BrazenChase]

Mobile controls are dreadful for just about everything, totally understandable!

[Fuzzbucket]

Thank you, @BrazenChase

[Ruby Eyes]

Oh, am I too late? Oh well

My photo was a cheap cheat anyway - I couldn't even get my cat to model for my photo!
