They are excellent Bret. My favourite here is No. 1, it looks just like crystal glass.

I can't resist just one more after trying it in mono.

At the moment just getting to Ludlow would be interesting. I'd certainly take the Land Rover not the saloon.

If you go from Kidderminster to Ludlow I hope you take the high road via Bewdley and Cleobury Mortimer right over the top of the Clee Hills. The view will be great from the top this weather.

I also prefer the third one, although the drip is better in No. 1. No. 2 could do with a heavy crop from the right side. There's a lot of sky there doing nothing.
Keep up the good work,
David

I prefer the first one, it has a warmer sky which looks as its a dawn or sunset and is more attractive to my eyes.

More from my icicle expedition, taken today Thursday Jan 7, this time using the DA*16-50 lens at 43mm on the K10. The sun was slowly melting the icicles and I got this drip after several attempts with the camera in drive mode. 1/25sec at F22 and ISO200.

Good subject Aiki. But its hard lines for anyone who is snowed up and lives in a bungalow.

PS I peeped at the comments thread last week but refused to be influenced by anyone's comments.

I considered increasing the saturation of the laat shot but held back because I wanted it to look light and airy and not overdone. I'm soemtimes accused by camera club friends of overdoing the saturation. But I might have another play with it to see how it looks. As for how far was I away from the subject, at a guess I'd say 18-24 inches away.

Andrew, I prefer your second icicle shot because I think it has better composition. One really sharp icicle is set against the other softer ones. They might sparkle more with a slight exposure or contrast in Photoshop.
