I'm afraid that I wouldn't have known the ice was ice if I hadn't read the title. It's a pity that the ice didn't come out looking more like ice, because the idea of fire and ice was a good one.
Intersting variation on a common theme. Seems to lack clarity and focus. Also, but for your title, I may not have known immediately that the objects surrounding the candle were ice chunks. The layout works well.
Interesting shot, though it appears to me that the ice has been relegated to the background and isn't palying as much a role in the photo as the title indicates. Having some additional light on the ice might help it stand out more.
Candles and ice all over DPC !
Sorry this just doesn't compete with many of the others using the same concept, let alone those images with an individual concept.
I almost did a fire and water, but just knew there would be a lot of them.
