Impressive image. I like the very minimal aspect of it, especially the glacier in the horizon, which is so simple and dramatically offsets the jagged lines of the icicles. Well seen.

great image. I love it that it is in B/W. Those icicles look dangerous!

Bien sur c'est très beau, mais j'aurais tellement voulu voir les différentes couleurs que la lumière devait donnée à ce pan de stalactites impressionant et pour accentuer le jeu de la transparence !!! Tu n'as pas la même en couleur pour voir ?

@Evelyne Dubos: Merci beaucoup Evelyne. Comme je l'avais indique en commentaire j'ai beaucoup hesite entre la couleur et le NB pour cette photo, ce qui est assez rare. j'ai donc garde les 2 versions mais la version couleur n'apporte rien de plus.
