Definitely agree with the symbolic heft. Less sure about the specific interpretation or tale attached, but yes, the picture screams out to have its story told even though it doesn't tell us exactly what the story is.

One sure quality that this picture has, which I thought around half of the entries lacked, is that it is immensely better for being in black and white. Colour would subtract/distract from both the emotive human content and the geometric symbols of the sailors' suits.

Pleased to see it.

The other two ribbons would have been more or less as good in colour. Monochrome makes this one. Shoulda won.

Grattis da gitt!
Ikke minst fortjener du å være foran de andre nærliggende, fordi bildet er av en refleksjon og ike av det reflekterte (mumle,mumle).
Well worth it, well done.

Nearly there. That horrible edge is effective and I can't pick a lot of fault with the reflection. Maybe a couple of sharper eyes? Honest anbd brave attempt at the challenge gets 7

Good. You managed to give reflection precedence over the reflected. (Apparently that's not easy). 7

Another great shot, but the reflections are incidental.
