Went to warm up the car this morning and found wonderful frost all over the windows!

I liked the pattern in this shot more than others but the open aperture setting combined with the curve of the windshield and the angle of my camera meant some parts would be slightly out of focus. I'm trying to convince myself that it gives it a pseudo depth of field...ha. Oh well, I need another five-point-something. :) Besides that, though this is "pretty," I think images of ice cubes and glaciers will place higher.

Nice texture in the ice. A creative title, too. Ice isn't a hard subject to introduce outside color into, but it also moves away from simply being ice. However, I do wish there were more colors here.
