12 - Design Through Cropping: Nature

This design through cropping gave me hard time, despite the posted pictures from all others. I think that it does require some thinking and looking around to find something that could be used. I noticed the deep frosts made (I guess) ten inches thick ice in the barrel that we have outside. And interesting textures. The original picture is little boring, just grey. I pushed and pulled a couple of triggers in RAW editor to make the result a bit more appealing.
