I see potential in this one. The blurriness add much to it. Thanks for sharing!

I really like this one in particular! Something about it brings a lot of contemplation to mind. Where is everybody? What do the people that use these boats do with them? Is the fog the reason no one is using them? If so, why? What are they all doing now? Sitting at home watching TV, or gazing out wondering when the fog will lift, in anticipation of the next time they can get onto the water?

The beauty of it is that I don't need answers. It's the contemplation itself that makes it hard to NOT look at it and think.

Great composition too. Framed perfectly! Not so balanced I'm drawn to a particular point, which to me is really booooorrrrring. I'm drawn to many different elements in the photo, from one to the next to the next, and back around again, asking all sorts of questions. That is what makes a picture really interesting to me.

Thanks :) There are no TVs on the island where I was, and limited Internet access. Even to use my cell phone I had to go to one side of the island near the mainland. At any given time there are usually only about 200 people on the island plus about 150 employees, and if you want solitude there are plenty of places to go to be alone. The rowboats are often used by the ppl who are on the island I was staying on, to row to some of the other islands nearby (which you can't see in that picture because of the fog) but I don't know who owns the sailboats.
