Well done, great colors, nice reflections in the water (in fact, I would have tried for more water in the shot, the reflections look so good).

Good Catholic Girl?

Thanks for all your comments.
The 'stars' were added using an 'in-camera' digital filter, "white cross filter". The camera decides where to put the stars, based on bright highlights.
Once the pic was out of the camera, main adjustments were saturation, where I removed all colors except blue and magenta, and increased the hue of blue to make the purple more vibrant.
Oh, and for those who didnt see the irony - you mustnt know many Catholic girls :)
(PS - 24 1's and 2's? Come on, it wasnt THAT bad. Maybe you all thought it was spot-edited? Ah well.)

Everyone dreams (or nightmares) of falling, and you've captured the feeling of falling perfectly - I get motion sickness looking at this picture! (Honestly, I do!) Well done!

The title obviously conveys the irony, but who cares? a very nice pic, and an idea very close to a friend of mine. (same camera, lower scores). Did you use the 10D to take the photo? If so, how?

Ice on fire

This is a great pic. Nice color, even the reflection of the ice adds to the pic. What are the yellow dots in the top left of the flame - fabric highlighted by the fire?
