I play last night with the cs4 i was try to do something with ice , and this image came out .
the only real image here is the flower .
this stuff that looks maybe a little bit like dark blue ice ,
are made with : BG black , black layer , then added clouds from the render .
3D new mesh from grayscale/cylnder . Then the 3D tools to rotare the ice .
when i had this ice i wanted , i made 3 copy layers , to make this stuff around ..
then the KPT effect has added to give that thing in the deep who looks like a frozen spider's net .
the gray part is with the same method , but i cant remember what i did to get this color , it tooks a lot of hours
thats why i miss some things i did , im sorry about this .
thanks for waching .

Kostas I like the cool feeling and the different elements work well here IMHO. My only thought would be to have the flower less centered.

This is very interesting. This has a very dimensional look. The white flower has nice detail. Than you for sharing your workflow.:)

Kostas, I really like your combination / collage images! This one is beautiful but I do have one suggestion...since the "feeling" of this image is about ice and coolness, you might take a look at pulling out some of the yellow tones of the flower and taking the whites more to a cool blue tone. ??? Just a subtle shift in color temperature might really set off the rest of the blues in the image.
