 I took this photograph today at my 4 am 70km trip for a photoshoot. It was really cold, but I love the place at any time of the year. It is just so peaceful and quiet there.

looks a little uncomfortable! I do like the shot though - we don't get to see this in Australia!

Beautiful picture, but not sure about comfort angle- being in port rather than at sea?

I don't find the ice and cold to be comforting. Then add a stark B&W photo on top of that. This exact same photo in June would be very comforting.

a very well taken picture, nice lighting, good crop use of 3rds rule etc. May get hammered by the DNMC's though as this looks cold and forboding rather than comforting.

Great shot- this really evokes winter and works so well in b & w .... but... I totally fail to see anything comforting, sorry. Comfort implies warmth, security, nurturing - the complete opposite of winter. Such a shame, this would have got top marks from me in a winter or 'cold' challenge.

Good b&w and an appealing subject. I would have cropped it off above the white mass in the lower left.

wonderful shot. focal length superb, exposure great. althoug, living on the same coast as this pic was taken (i think), i'm not so sure about the comfort factor!
