What a great place! The fog/mist rising up is great and the dark vs light works well here. It seems a little low contrast - like there are no real blacks in here...maybe?

Too bad the fog isn't a bit thicker over by the top of the far bluff, hiding the more ordinary buildings. I like the composition and lighting; I'd probably have played with contrast and color combos, but have nothing definite in mind which would improve it.

I like the overall subject of this photo. Good composition and balance. To bad the fog or mist did not cloud the background out (the buildings beyond look a tad out of place in this shot).

A little dark for my taste.

Now this is excellent. Unlike some of the B&W photos I've seen, I'm content to view this in B&W rather than wish I could see it in colour; the mist coming off the water and the brick look quite neat this way. Compositionally, angle and distance are lovely; the trees in the left bottom do not distract because the mist in the center helps draw the gaze rightwards. This is by far my favorite of what I've seen so far.

Nice subject, but too much white sky

You should have cropped out the entire left 1/3 of the shot in my opinion. The ball field/lights in the background takes away from the ancient feel of the shot. Otherwise a great shot. 6

The trees in the left handcorner and the two garage doors in the background detract alot from what could be great photo. The abanoned building , cliff, sea and mist are great elements, they just need to be isolated if possible.
