Good concept, hits home, very chilling in more ways than one.

Wow. This is probably my favourite picture this round. Really good use of blobs,
particularly the bubbles which look real. The lighting and blur work really
well, though maybe there's a little too much blur. In any case I really loke it
:)

From the_dark_allies@hotmail.com:
        Very excellent work!  Thank you for also explaining how you pieced this
one together as well.  The image looks very realistic.  Almost too realistic,
it scares me looking up at it from the shot you_d put it in.  The only real
thing that strikes me as needing work is the hand and arm appears much too
chubby.  
        P.S.  I have hardly seen people do bubbles as good as you have created
them, very good work on that as well.

At first glance, I wasn't impressed with this, but the longer I looked at it,
the more I liked it. I think it really probably appears pretty authentic!
A somewhat morbid take on the winter theme, but you get points for
originality!!

Very original! Though it hit me as a bit grim.

Heh - the ray-tracer's lament.

Great picture.  Don't see any room for improvement at all. Love the media and
the bubbles.

Good concept and execution

From lrwii@joplin.com:
I like the concept. Every winter you always hear about 
some one doing this.

Very good underwater ice effect. I don't understand the hippopotamus shadow. Is
it a hand reaching up?
