An interesting entry into the seascape contest; however I feel the focus is really the fisherman and not the sea. Just my take. Nice focus and clarity. The blue jacket stands out well in the mostly black and white image. Good luck in the contest.

thanks michelle for the good comments,disagree as dof has the sea/fisherman and pier in focus and they all relate to the sea

Comment from Glena Jessee-King
This is a fine seascape scene and you have done a fine job of capturing it. The person with the blue coat adds a little color to the fine gray scales. Best wishes in the contest.

Your photography skills is quite impressive. It's as if I'm there and I'm seeing a fisherman fishing alone. I also like how you made the background black and white and kept the lone fisherman in blue as the main focus.

I don't know why they put artist info not displayed cause I already know whose work this is. The blue against the black and white is an nice touch!

This is a wonderful shot of this fisherman on the shore testing his luck at catching dinner. He certainly has enough poles. This is a great presentation and I wish you luck in the contest. Ray

A very interesting and unique visual presented here of this fisherman on the cold blistery day. Your composition, shades, tones, and angle captures the scene perfectly. Well done. Thank you for sharing.

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine and appropriate composition offers us a good view of winter fishing by an old pier. Sharpness and exposure are good. Nicely done!

This cool picture shows a quiet pier where a man is fishing. The photo is in black and white, except for the man's blue dress, which is in colour. This makes the blue stand out and gives the picture a special touch. It feels like a calm and timeless moment by the sea, showing how even one person can be a part of the beautiful nature around them.Good luck in the contest!

Wow quite the outfit he has going there. Here we are allowed only one line, although ice fishing you get to use two. How in the world does he get those lines in the water< It sure looks out lol,, dont blame you for being fast to take photos and leave
