Hi,Pablo,
Nice shot with well shown northern colours.
I like when spring breaks the ice.
The tender birches' twigs are a good idea.

Hello Pablo
Une très belle lumière pour saisir ce "moment juste"!!
Le morceaux de glace donne une belle touche graphique à cette photo et le pont s'intègre parfaitement dans cette composition.
Du très bon travail.
Bon WE, amicalement

Hi Pablo,
Great view over the river and the broken ice. The ice creates a very nice pattern along with the already visible water. The composition is excellent too with the bridge placed on the left hand side. Also the inclusion of the branches in the upper right hand corner is good. Thanks for sharing this moment!

Lars

Hi Pablo,
An image that makes us feel the cold winter environment, in a good setting with the frozen river, the bridge in diagonal and a great perspective, and the branches in foreground.
Great light and natural colors, in a very attractive composition.
Best regards,

Olá Pablo, this is a scene I would like to see it happening. I'm imagining the sound...The image has great quality as usual. Nice balance bettween the branches and the bridge. Love the textures of the broken white carpet.
Have a nice weekend,

Happy Easter.

Bonjour Pablo
je vois que le printemps a commencé son œuvre et que l'approche des beaux jours est pour bientôt, nous il nous reste entre 4 et 5 mètres de neiges au sol, l'hiver a été particulièrement enneigé cette année, belle composition aux couleurs riches et les détails bien en évidences.

Hi Pablo,
Yes, it is the time of the year, spring has arrived in my country. It is still cold and windy. The ice is starting to break on the diffrent rivers like on your photo. The point of view takes our eyes towards the mountain in the background. The ice in the foreground is a good addition to the composition. The subject is well framed and the photo is clear and precise. Have a nice day.

Hi Pablo,
Great late winter capture of this decisive moment in nature when winter's firm girp is finally broken. Excellent details and sharpness to the floating ice below the vivid blue winter sky. After a cold winter we had a very warm day in early April that cause the ice to break suddenly and it sounded like a bomb going off. The rushing ice went up a flat bank several hundered meters and took out the wall of an old brick house.
Regards, Tom

Hei Pablo,
You have captured a really exiting moment here. I guess that the ice will be completely gone very quickly. Excellent POV and composition. I really like the bridge against the sky to the left. Also very good to see some water in the foreground. TFS and Happy Easter!

It sounds as if you were lucky to catch this moment. It's not a sight we see in the UK. You had difficult light and there seems to be some under-exposure. I was curious to see if any detail could be teased out of the shadows so I hope you don't mind that I tried a WS.

Hello Pablo. You have chosen perfect moment for this composition. The ice flakes is just stunning on the surface creating very interesting texture on the surface. The diagonal bridge creates excellent leading perspective to the mountainous horizon which is just stunning against that gorgeous looking sky. Well done and have a wonderful weekend. Regards. Jusni

Bonjour Pablo,
et oui, un pays où les hivers sont encore des hivers, bien froids.
Ici, en Belgique, la neige a attendu le printemps pour tomber.
Très bonne exposition avec le rendu de tous les détails dans les zones claires, les blancs, et un peu moins évidemment dans les zones sombres, c'était un choix, et le bon.
Happy Easter.
Daniel.

Hej Pablo
the sound of an icebreaking river in this size is something very hard to describe, the sound of thousands of unsynchronized small bells with the same irrelevant intensity as a Philharmonic orchestra tuning up before a concert.
happy Easter

Hi Pablo. This is something a bit different for me, nice to see but quite pleased I don’t have it happen near me. Well composed the tree branch make a nice frame on the right and the bridge adds depth. Thanks for sharing.
Happy Easter, Paul.

Hello Pablo,
nice composition with great perspective and POV of the bridge.The break of the ice make the scene more attractive and in combination with the blue sky the contrasted colours are marvellous.Informative your note about the behavior of the river Gaula during the Winder days.

Hello Pablo,
The bridge gives a nice depth and perspective.
Good contrast between the dark background and the white ice on the river.
Also the blue sky and the light cloudy sky give a nice composition.
Thanks for sharing.
Happy Easter,

(2321) - [2008-03-23 9:08]
A very fine picture which really gives you the sense of the North.
I've seen the ws done by feather and while it is nice too, I still prefer your version because preserves the high contrast between the ice and the hills-trees, and the cold light present in the scene.
I like very much the high definition of the detalils too.
Ciao,
Donato

Hi Pablo,
You sure caught this at the right moment!! The thinness of the ice is evident in your photo. We have a cousin with a beach house on the Northumberland Strait in Nova Scotia; he has an old photo of the breakup years ago where the salty ice chunks were as big as small cars - no more! ! In fact your photo looks a lot like what I saw when I flew back from Denmark last year in July.
Reminds of a line from that 60's song, "Where have all the flower's gone?" It was, "When will we ever learn?" And we thought we had accomplished something but now we have the world's worst terrorist in the White House.
Okay, no more raving, I'm focusing on health, lpove & joy and at least I'm happier.
HLJ, Pat

Hej Pablo.
Very pleasing photo of this ice beaking. Maybe it's a bit dark (but I just saw the great WS done by Kath). The composition with the thin branches is really good and so is the ice-puzzle. About the normal weather; the lakes and the sea around where I live haven't had any ice in this winter (maybe one day or two with very thin ice)

Hello Pablo,
Frozen rivers are always a welcome sight, though care is needed to thread over them. Good angle to capture the ice blocks and the bridge on the left. The image is sharp, with nice colours and very pleasant to see. The tree bracnhes do a good job to frame the view of the floating ice. Nice work Pablo.

Oh yes, and this year we don't even had an ice about which it was possible to say that it "break at some date", as it was thin and floating in Baltic Sea quickly and several times around Winter. Great shot, and note is very, very informative.

Hi Pablo, good positioning to capture this breakup of the ice. Having the bridge included in the shot as you do, gives the shot some scale. Your shot may be just a tad dark, Kath has prepared a good workshop for you. The colour is good, and I especially like the texture you've managed to capture with this break up, a sure sign of spring.
Thanks,John

Hello Pablo,
This is so interesting.
It's like reading Wikipedia with a photograph!
I just love the composition! The breaking ice for f/g interest, the bridge leading the eye to the mountains, the snow-tipped summits and that beautiful blue sky! Then, of course, the tree fronds just soften it artistically.
Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Not dangerous so much ice on the river?
Here for the last 4 years was really dangerous
This year fortunately is better :)
