Is it focussed enough? I had better focussed ones, but the frosty flowers were more obscure, plus I was hoping the melting parts would help with the fragility of the frost vs the delicacy of the pansy

Hello from the critique club!

Great subject and fits the challenge very well.

As you have questioned yourself, the focus seems a bit off, or atleast not sharp enough. Also looking at the picture, doesn't look like you sharpened it after resize, which you should always for presentation. Colors can take a little more saturation to make them pop out. Since its basic editing you can't do much about somewhat distracting branch at the bottom. A little more contrast will also enhance the subject.

Once again a good entry which can be improved will a little editing.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me via pm

thanks,
Gaurawa

Oh what a pity you didnt have a bit more focus on this shot, a bit of fill flash maybe or a reflector to give it a bit more light? Also back off a bit more to get a better depth of field and then crop the shot in PS? Icicles are fascinating.

I love that some of the frost is melting, it reaffirms the "delicate" theme.
