Where I live is close to Lake Michigan, it's been a cold winter and the ice and the icebergs have really built up:

Hey Nolad,

Thanks for sharing these. I think these are the strongest you have posted yet. The last two in particular are really quite good. The last being my absolute favorite. Very well done.

James

Thanks James, I have a new Sigma lens, 17-70 and I am liking it very much.

Good work, Nolad. I found the circular frosted stuff interesting (#3 shows it best). Photographically, the last one has nice balance to it. It does have a centered horizon, but the coloured building adds a lot.

Hi Nolad,

One thing that Jim mentioned below that I think is something that is often not stated enough...try to keep your horizons straight. Some of the shots, while their compositions are nice, have an almost 'spilling' like effect. We all do this naturally hand holding but it is usually easy to correct for in PS. For example the 2nd and 3rd photo look like they are spilling towards the left a bit by a degree or so.

James
