That is one very still fisherman. This is my favorite of the challenge (I am not a big fan of cityscapes). The simple lines, subtle horizon line and wonderful color make it. You may want to check out Michael Kennan's website. He is a acclaimed photographer that does amazing night exposures for hours. Your shot here is evocative of his work.

Congrats! I had in my mind that this was an Iceland shot.

Beautiful image, Bear. Like the composition and the ghostly transition from water to sky.

so this was yours! Nice placement there, 11th! :)

Wow! I would have never expected this from you Robert ;) This is just stunning! Great job here. So is this the nautical twilight shot?

I like the simple blue cast combined with the simple composition. The jetty really draws your eye to the fisherman figure. Nice job!

Excellent. Love the beautiful blue tones. The thin line between the sky and the sea is amazing. 10.

I would have either cloned out, or cropped out the distracting spots on the left of the image. Otherwise, it's perfect. I especially like the negative space of the upper image and how it contrasts, yet compliments the subject. Well done!

I have to think, enlarging this on a wall 24" or so could be magnificent.

I think the overall darkness of the picture and the distance of the subject work against each other here. If the pic had been a little lighter, you could have gotten away easier with the tiny person - the the challenge subject of Night Shot mitigated against lightening the pic. So I'd have probably gotten closer and emphasized the subject a bit more. Tough call. The deep blue and black tones are very nice.

Ribbon. Love the negative space the leading line and the blue tone. 10

I will be shocked if this doesn't get a ribbon.

The blue has blinded me. Now I'll have to calibrate my eyes ;-) Nice, but do something about the blue color. Too much and too bright.
Post actions
the whole thing seems very unnatural to me ... I'd love to see the original photo ...
Post actions
Wow. Color, perspective, leading lines, a hint of fog...it's all here. Good work!
Post actions
A very simple yet effective image. I would clone out the light on the left as well as the buoy. Just my opinion
Post actions
I love the blue; good shot.
Post actions
Love blues, and love this image.....

Nice colors and good composition. I like the "minimalist" approach you have taken with the overall simplicity and the tiny size of the lone person.
Post actions
Lovely picture. Looks like a painting. There are some minor spots (on the right), but overall effect is wonderful. 8.
Post actions
This is very beautiful, but what are the spots on the left of the picture?
Post actions
The color here jumps off the screen! Cropping a bit off the top and right would probably make the fisherman more of a subject.
Post actions
love the fog, the sence of depth, and the colours really speak the mood. This would be my pick for a blue ribbon.
Post actions
My favorite color is blue :o) Like your picture because it IS blue, and the subject is clear although small... 7
Post actions
Like the concept. Not sure I like the person so small though. - 7

Great color, mystical feel.

Lovely in blue! Nice composition, Great shot!

Amazing capture. Well composed & focused. The blue is a bit much, but it works. :)

This is beautiful. It makes me wonder if they should limit "basic editing" more because it shifts too far away from what the original was.
Post actions
WOW - this is powerful. Love the cobalt!!!
