After many shots I settled for this one. I put an ice cube on a mirror in a small light box and,let it melt to get the before and after. I wanted to make it a little more interesting so I used some Christmas lights to add some color, softened the focus slightly, and at the same time made it more abstract. This is my first challenge with my new Canon EOS 40D, and I can see I am going to love it!

Pretty cool idea, I would have put two ice cubes, 1 completely frozen and the other like this to get more of the challenge title, but...still pretty cool
This looks like oil on water because of the strong colours, and if you're title didn't tell me, I would never have known!
I think perhaps move back on the shot a little to give it a little perspective, and not such harsh colourful lighting, though I do like this better than all the plain water / ice submissions.
