 Converted to B&W using channel mixer, which also introduced some noise, which I kind of liked for this shot. Also slight USM

An abandoned picnic table, which was once surrounded by the happy laughter and chatter of family picnic antics... black and white certainly helps convey the sense of age.

This is a little grainy. I also suspect that you might get hammered in the voting because people that live in warm climates won't understand how quiet a beach is when there is still a little snow on the ground. But, growing up in New England made that time of year my favorite time to be on a beach. The only other thing might be to increase the size and not crop so tightly, maybe push out the right side of the picture a little?

The background seems a little too blurry. Poor table has seen better days!

might have been better in color - the ice does not stand out. also, if the table was off center a bit more.
