Looks good JimboB. It reminds me of one of Mr. Sea's shots with the skaters, minus the windmills, the dunes, the canals, the Dutch.....Oh well, you know what I mean. I like the treatment you gave it. Good winter colors.

I like your post work on this one Jim, has a bit of orton feel to it. I bet that park does not look like that now. :)

Just what I like to see...real life drama. What a great pastime for the kids at this time of year. For me it was skating and sledding. Everything looks real good in this shot and the angle is really nice. Good color too.

Rare to see ice hockey being played in the open this way. Nice shot of the park and the action Jimbob.

Jimbob - It looks like fun. I'll be over with my skates and stick in a bit. Oh wait - after breaking my leg playing hockey in '96, my wife threatened to change the locks if I payed again. Okay, vicariously, I'll enjoy watching the game. WIth the post-photo work, the scene has great depth, almost 3D, and real fine color tones. Thad

I think it's time to bring out the Zamboni and redo the ice... did you know the first ice resurfacer was developed by Frank Zamboni in 1949 in the city of Paramount, California.
What a nice shot Jimbob showing a slice of life winter scene in Northern Ohio! A+++

I have never played real ice hockey but considering there is not that much to do on a snowy day why not?? The kids look like they are enjoying it! Great shot.

C'mon Jim , Put down the Camera and grab a stick and show those young whippersnappers how to play. Glad you stuck with the camera though, Very nice shot.

If you'd done this shot 500 years ago, and painted the word 'Bruegel' in the bottom corner, this shot would be a priceless work of art today.

Not sure if that sounds right, but a masterpiece none the less.
