Plain ice

Thanks very much guys for featuring this image on www.diyphotography.net

 

I got 5th place in the D3A contest with this image - I knew there had to be a reason for the sudden increase in traffic! www.diyphotography.net/d3a-5th-place-winner Wish I'd removed the frame now but I seem to be one of those people who prefers them! :-)

 

I guess getting 5th place out of 5 prizes means I get last choice:-> but my preference would be for the explorer followed by the lensbaby, timer, vertex and then gells.

 

Is it just me or is there some weird Escher type optical illusion in the middle of this?

 

Strobist info - "ice" cubes sat on black acrylic sheet with a tracing paper background out of the top of the shot. Canon 430ez on 1/8th power firing onto a tracing paper background.
