Hi, Critique Club here...

I have to applaud you for taking chances by rotating the image the way you did. Unfortunately, it doesn't work very well for me.
The vertical line on the left is too strong for the more subdued colors of the ice so that gets all the attention.
There is a weird color cast on the background behind it too. Maybe since there is so little color you could have just gone completely black and white.
The diagonal line of the ice makes the eye want to follow it, but upon arrival at the end, there is nothing there.

Overall, I think this one is kind of flat and not very interesting to look at. But as I said before, good on you for thinking out of the box. Keep working at it, good things will come.

I'm not sure why you rotated this as it's not the way nature made it, however it's sharp and the basic monotones are appealing in an abstract way.

The tilt doesn't work for me.

Was the photo rotated? If not, then good "constructed" photo
