I like this a lot, a really nice shot. I did not realise this place was so big

Really like the way you've done this!! The blue looks so cool (literally) as befits ice, yet the monochrome theme is retained by the skater.

Thanks Frank. Yep is was a blue filter, then I removed it from the girl so it was like a blue vignette.

Very nice, Shirley. The selective B&W (or is it blue tint?) works very well for this subject.
