[Leica] IMGS: Ice Festival

[Douglas Barry]

Tina,
I followed all of these to the end and they are really wonderful - all 
of them! You really made the most of your opportunity, and going when 
the snow was there, was an excellent idea. Your images certainly 
conveyed the cold: I even had to put a jumper on despite the central 
heating here.

So many good ones, it's hard to pick a favorite.
