    This is class, I love it. Plus it could say something, it’d be a great pictorial allegory for the ‘Cold War’. It’s just ‘one of those shots’.

    J.K., this is an intriguing image. Excellent layered composition in the vertical format; and good bokeh in the background. Superb detail in the ice/barbedwire. Good eye to see this. I like it a lot. Cheers! Chris

    yeh this is gold. such strong opposition in symbolism, merged reluctantly together. the d.o.p is fantastic, so too are the warm duotones.

    What a mix … rusting razor points, dripping, smooth edged ice … now, where could this lead? A cut? ... dripping blood? ... ice pack? The way something so simple could conjur up so much … and I haven’t even had my morning coffee …
