This night shot looks good as black and white. Portrait orientation captures the full boat riggings and its reflection in the water nicely. Well composed.
When I was missing the nights were absolutely silent... especially when there was no breeze. In our 'civilized' world we are bombarded with noise all the time. It is nice to experience absolute silence.
While lost the nightime quiet was occasionally interrupted by coyotes howling. They would suddenly start howling, for no apparent reason, and continue to do so for about 2 minutes and then go totally silent again. There would be 20-30 of them yelping into the night all at once and makng lots of noise. Coyotes are constantly on the move and travel in loose hunting groups often spread over a faily wide area. It was disconcerting when I was inside the perimiter of a group when they started to howl because they would literally be surrounding me. They move very quietly and I never knew they were nearby unless they happened to started howling. Coyotes avoid people so there was never a problem for me. - Steve

Great photo! A different title may help this fit into the challenge better.

Nice image. I really enjoy the peace and stillness of this photo. I adore b&w so this already has something great going for it out of the gate. The tones look good, perhaps a bit more contrast would make it pop just a little more. The focus and composition are good as well though I think more water would help extend that stillness factor (assuming a change in position would allow for that). I gave a 6

BEAUTIFUL shot. Serene, calm, great use of duotones. Excellent composition, and the title is perfect for this photo. However, how does this relate to the search for Steve? ;)
