Wonderful, emotive capture - journalistic yet so balanced. Love it.

To have such definition and to create such interest in these conditions is outstanding. I thought this image would have scored higher, but I'm glad it did well.

Nice and dreary pic. Only looks grainy due to the extreme fog.

There's a short story in this picture, which makes it enticing to me. Nice job.

Beautiful use of the fog, and a very graceful boat.

What a fog! Nice picture, but the link with grace is not really obvious.

I like this photo, but feel it could have done with a little levels adjustment to make the boat stand out just a little more.

Very noisy, but nice composition, makes me feel the cold of this ocean

This is one of the few flat photos that I've ever liked. The ghostly appearence to the ship contributes to the theme.

Well made, subjects, composition and B&W works really good together. :-) I like the fog, too. Grats!

Nice shot. Graceful. I like the way the vessel is clouded by the fog. - 8

As someone who has sailed in storms it is certainly is grace that gets you home under this kind of fog, good interpretation of the topic. I particularly like the position of the sail when you shot.

Oh wow. What a fabulous photograph this is. The sailboat looks almost ghostly as it fades into (or out of) the fog and the lack of horizon adds a wonderful, mystical feel to it. This is a stunning, moving shot to me. Good luck with the challenge. I hope others see the beauty you have captured here. 10

Grace and mercy are very related, therefor this is on topic! I like the spiritual significance of the photo. Being lost in the fog forces one to rely on something other than yourself.

I can't really offer any technical comments because I don't think I could do better myself. Well done!
