 Going all out for an eye candy :)

put water in a bucket, rose in water, bucket in a fridge, waited a few hours, took the ice block out, melted it a bit, put on a plexiglass sheet and lighted with a big flashlight which I placed directly under the sheet. Added a little accent light on the flower with another small flashlight. Voilà!

This is a very beautiful image, I love how you captured the ice melting around the flower. I also think the reflection is a nice touch!

Great colors and I like the composition. Couldn't figure out what's in the ice.

took me a while to recognize what this is... nice colors, though a more transparent ice cube would have been better IMO
