Snow, Water and Ice study- Reposted

I have been working on some winter weather scenes. My daughter took this photo at Fisherman's Cove near Franklin, PA, and I just had to try it. I know rocks are very un-interesting to some people but I love the colors that come from water-covered ones! I tried to portray the feel of a day when the snow and ice are just starting to melt.

Very N-ice! Get it? Ice? Oh well!

You did so well on this - You captured the edges of the transparent snow melt just exactly right!

Good job, Sunny - I'm looking forward to checking out WetCanvas!

I think you nailed it Sunny. The edges of the snow do feel as if they are melting. Very pretty and an interesting composition.
