Jimbob - So long as the light doesn't play peek-a-boo with the ships on the lake, it can play the game with the condos. ;-) Crisp details and colors in the condo and light. Trees on the right offer a nice balance for the buildings to the left. The sweeping lines of the inlet complete the composition. Lighting is spot on. I'm not sure if it is my monitor, but there appears to be some noise in the sky (?). Thad

Knew that couldn't be the lighthouse keepers quarters! Nicely sharp and clear image, Jimbob. You sure can get that lens to do what I could never get out of it. Water level there sure looks shallow or maybe it's just low tide.

The reason why the sunsets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Looks like this would be a perfect get-a-way. Love how the lighthouse is partially hidden. Great angle to show off the surroundings too. Wonderful capture Jim.

Really well composed and it is a pleasure to view. I like the contrast of the pristine white and green of the builsings and the grey sky. The peeking lighthouse invbites getting a closer look - and I see you have a post that gives us that - which is also excellent.
