 We got hit with a huge ice/snow storm. Perfect timing for this challenge! Cropped, resized, contrast, gamma, brightness, convert to gray/bw, and added a border.

I shot this through our window, then we lost power for the next day & a 1/2 so I didn't realize how it was focused on the window instead of through it. I have 2 out takes in my portfolio I'd love more comments on!

I like the idea a lot, but find that the center of the photo being out of focus is very distracting. I have to look around to find a focal point.

The focus is kind of soft, and that's unfortunate because I really like this shot in concept.

Too bad none of the ice is in focus. Good idea though.
