2.35 - "Needs Work" 

Shot in Yamanashi, Japan. The waterfall was almost entirely frozen, so I had to go with an intimate landscape photo.

Love the concept! I'd consider going with a little faster shutter speed to bring some detail back to the water (or otherwise doing something to bring out the contrast). It's just a little too soft in most of the image for me.

Personally, I prefer silky smooth water over detailed water, so I usually go with a longer shutter speed. Perhaps I'll try running a clarity brush along the water to help with the contrast, though.
Thanks!
