Excellent Colin, I'm glad you've re-submitted this larger/cropped version - it really is a picture to get the pulse racing

Thanks for the positive comment. I have started to get my old slides scanned properly. My attempts at scanning with second hand slide scanners failed so I found 'Mr Scan' online and the results are really good.

I love the everything about this one. The grain, light, the ice blowing off to the side. It makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up, you can sense the care that is being taken given the exposure. Character and bags of it. I have really enjoyed looking through you gallery. Thanks
