My Dutch friend John Rozema aka rozem061 said in his comment on THIS IMAGE: "De vuurtoren is mijn inziens te dominant aanwezig. Persoonlijk had ik liever de hele toren op de foto gezien." which means in English: "The lighthouse is depicted to dominant. Personally I had prefered to see the whole lighthouse on the image."
Of course, I can't refuse such a request. Therefore this one.
Hope you'll like it too. Thanks in advance for your comment.

It's a magic image whichever way you look at it...R.

“Always borrow money from a pessimist. He won’t expect it back.”
Undoubtedly this looks much better Cornelius. A sense of peacefulness can be felt just by looking at this lovely sunset image.

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
I love the lighting in this, Mr. C. The lighthouse looks great. I love lighthouses so much, that even just a part of one is OK by me!

"Never stop photographing. It is very likely that your best photograph has not yet been captured">
You are such an accommodating Captain, SEA.
I love both versions.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
2 photos are good, but I prefer the larger plan! Congrats Cornelius.

High time someone said something else. I prefer the first one by all means, even if this one is a beauty in its way too. My reasons are exactly same as John's but the opposite. I want the lighthouse to prevail and dominate the image together with the sun. HOWGH.

With all my love and respect, Marzena
The lighthouse dominates, yes, but not just because it's the largest object. What I'm seeing here is a contrast in form, function and light. The purpose of the lighthouse goes back to the Greeks of the 3rd century, B.C. and we all know how recent the development of the jet airliner is. We see the entire lighthouse in this image but only the vapor trail behind the jets. The lighthouse appears as a near-silhouette against the warm sunset and the vapor trail is a brilliant white, both strong elements. The downward angle of the hill, the triangle of sky between the hill and the top of the sunset clouds and the direction and length of the vapor trails pull our eyes across the image and down to the lighthouse, and that, dear friends, is what allows the lighthouse to dominate. (The effect is much like the "Skinner Box" method of setting up grocery stores—you may or may not realize that you have to pass by all the junk the store wants you to pay big bucks for to get to the staples like bread and milk—what happens in that store happens whether we are cognizant of it or not.) The physics of composition is strong in this photo, intended or not. Whatever the case, it makes for an excellent submission, well done from both photographic and artistic viewpoints. -Nik

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
Another absolute stunner Cornelius. Everything about this is beautiful.

"Horse sense is the thing a horse has which keeps it from betting on people." W.C. Fields. So I bet you'll go over to see My Gallery.
I personally do like this one just a tad more than your other one in that there is so much more to see. Love that sunset.

Life's moments are sweet. I just want to capture all that I can of them.
Hoi,Cornelius !
Meteen toen ik de 'thumbnail' zag dacht ik al "Dit is het helemaal" Een schitterende foto Precies zoals ik ook in gedachten had. Sterk in al z'n eenvoud, met een prachtige zonsondergang, en een toren die erbij hoort, en niet meer zo storend aanwezig is.
De meningen verschillen hier (en dat mag natuurlijk ook !)
maar mijn conclusie is dat het merendeel deze foto als de
mooiste ervaren. Dat betekent nog niet dat het ook de 'beste'
is natuurlijk. Smaken verschillen nou eenmaal, en dat is maar goed ook!
Bedankt voor het plaatsen van deze foto Cornelius, ik ben er erg blij mee
Wens je verder een goed week-end !
John
