 It was a thick fog in the cemetery
The end of the road between the trees seem to disappear to nothing. Since my leading lines (Trees and road) lead you to nothing ... there is no subject,hence, my image with no subject entry. Hope you like this

one of my ribbon picks - you've created tension in this shot as it's just waiting for the subject.

Amazing how leaving the centre of the image empty immediately makes it seem devoid of subject. Well done.

Nice image, but I don't feel it really meets the challenge. To me the road is clearly the main subject of the image.

I love it! It contains "subject" but a subject that is no longer. This is my favorite photo submitted in this challenge! The title is perfect. Great job!

I like this alot, but isn't the road the subject almost? Just a thought. It has a center of focus, but it's not exactly the subject I s'pose.

Subject here is the road. So your image has a subject. This challenge idea sucks though, so I'm voting just based on the photo which is very nice. Love the processing. Very spooky looking. 8. Maybe whoever suggested this challenge idea is under one of those stones.

I guess in the spirit of the challenge, the 'road' becomes the subject here, and your title points it out...but as a photo it's superb and I love the mist and b and w treatment, so...7
