 This was the hardest preparation I have had for a challenge. I spent over 40 hours making ice in the shape of H2O and by the time I was done I had 1 hour before the challenge deadline to shoot the photo. So the actual photography has been a rush job.

i love the amount of efforts you took to shoot this... take this for dedication... you could have worked on lighting... but there is always a next time... the efforts are certainly worth more than the photo position

What did you do make a cast?

Wonderul idea. Your lighting is good and I like the rich blues. The one thing thats jumped out at me though is the cut off reflection. Similar to the background, try to be aware of how the foreground falls in the composition. Having said that, it didn't stop this shot from winning blue. Good job. 8 for now.

For such dramatic set-up you needed more bold lighting or really going at it with contrast on the editing stage.

Very creative. I wonder how many times you had to refreeze and retake the shot.

Well constructed and thought of idea. I would have like the Letter to be more contrasting from the background. Its missing a little more punch.

No way did you make H2O out of ice! That's ingenious!
