— Beautiful, awsome picture. But I do not understand why is it that you have to spoil the photo, placing the "ViewBug" sign in the very center of the picture. Why don't you place it in the lower right corner, in a less visible manner?.. Or even better, frame the picture, and place it in the lower section of the frame, like you've done with other good photographs.. Why did you do this?. I do not understand it.. I really don't.. This really bothers me!!!....

Without a doubt my favourite in this contest. The contrast of the colours is breathtaking with the harsh white ice in the foreground and the soft light of the moon as the focal point. The darkness of the clouds sets of the whites, grays yellows and oranges. Good idea to put your person slightly to the left and let the moon be the focal point. DOF also amazing. Wow, congratulations

Location
The picture is taken near Stavoren- Holland -on the edge of the largest freshwater lake of Holland - het IJsselmeerTime
In the winter the sun sets on the end of the afternoon- this was around 4 o'clockLighting
It takes a certain underexposure to get all the high and lowsEquipment
Camera was the D800E/Nikon and no flash used.Inspiration
After a very cold winter when the frozen over lake starts to melt back into water the ice landscapes can be very phenomenal- so of particular of my intrestEditing
Yes, in lightroom you can very easily adjust the highs and lowsIn my camera bag
Lately i switched to the nikon D750 and the 20 mm 1.8 wide angle- small, lightweight and very flexible. Along with some lenses like the 70-200/2.8 and sometimes the 14-24/2.8Feedback
At the end of the day when the light gives way it's the best time to stay
