Here are a couple I took over the winter. We had some really great icecicles coming off our balcony so I tried to incorporate them into the foreground. These were taken with my Canon S1 IS. I just wish I had my Rebel then, I think these would have turned out ever better. Let me know what you think!

I actually love the picture without the iceicles. Great comp. Your white balance may be a little off and be giving you a little stronger blue than what was really there, but it still works for the character of the photo. Nice catch! ;)

Yeah, I could probably stand to Photoshop both of them. It was almost dusk when I took the picture though, so the coloring is almost accurate. BTW, both of the pictures have icecicles in them, lol.

I really like the big iceicle to the right hand side, very cool. Look at all those ducks by the water. brr... looks chilly.

Yeah, the ice on the right side is my favorite as well. That was a couple days before Christmas when we had a HUGE snow storm. And it is most certainly duck heaven out there. They can get awfully loud sometimes, let me tell ya!!
