Nice idea.
Could use a bit of contrast (like +20 in photoshop).
I wonder what a longer shutter speed would do with the photo.

Cool reflection. I might have pushed the colors and contrast a bit more and flippin it wouldn't hurt it either imo. Looks like Yosemite to me but it has been nine years since I last was there.

Last time I saw a photograph of this (ID=127647) it was not about hurricanes at all but about the 2nd worldwar.
The color is a bit flat and lacking contrast, the grain is more about color noise and not about pattern filmlike grain.

I Am Not There

Just wonderful. Dark vs Light. Roughness trying to conquer the delicate carving, the mood of the pose of the statue combined with your photographical presentation. Very, very good.

Edit:

Interesting poem as well. Thanks for introducing me to stuff like that. Is it yours? (/me is not up to date with poetry)

Inner Strength

The vignetting makes the mind close in on the statue and gives it a creepy feeling. Combined witht the toning it makes a wonderful exposure / balance, precisely what the subject needs.
The face looks like that of a child, innocent. The darkness closes in. What have I done wrong? You need a lot of inner strength for such situations. Perfectly presented.

Bang, top 10! Say it with pictures! :)
It looks like a gracious little boat.
Just like the flower, great use of negative space.

Gefeliciteerd.

"Ribbons ga ik deze keer niet halen". ROFL! :)
Moet een lekker gevoel gegeven hebben om de score zo te zien klimmen.
