Well...
The emotional part of the shot works for me author(the final act of human self misery) but in the technical part there's some motion blur in high-resolution(because of the difficulty of the shot i guess,low light environment,a self portrait maybe,poor light source).
Over all a very good entry author.
Good luck!

Leave it to the master to immediately know the problem It's not a self portrait but it is a poor light source, I took several shots trying to get a good one but this is the best I could come up with. Ah well, I suppose it's a learning experience at least.

It was an idea I was toying around with too but I think you executed it well. GL!

great shot ! well done

Wonderful light !

Nice image for the theme.....gl

She looks thoughtful... Cute!

Funny is that looking at it here, I am finding it a little oof on her face...lol

definitely on theme. very nice shot. GL

Nice ice! GL!

EDIT: Friiskiwi, do you see the reflection of the other icicles? I do.

very nice, But I think you are supposed to be able to see something in the drop.

there is a refraction in the drop, it appears to be a wall and something at one end of it.

"cool" shot!

Thanks, yes I do see it.

this is awesome!!!

nice

nice work..........something different...well done.

I like it... might crop a little closer on the top to emphasize the gold "arcs"

nicely done, interesting composition, just appears to have some dust or something in the handles???

nice yellow light contour

Nice job!

Nice idea

great entry

This shot is great, except for the dust or whatever that is on some of the knives.
