For those who don't know how to pronounce that funny indian word, it's yak-i-naw. :-)
The grass detail is very clear. Knowing how the wind is normally on the coast, it looks like you got lucky and found a fairly calm day. I can see every bump in the paint on the lighthouse tower. Very crisp and clean. What photo editing software do you use? Many of them have something called a clone brush that you could use to remove the distracting walk and rail on the right hand edge of the framing. Just copy a little of the grass over the top and it disappears. With practice, the same can be done with the tourists around the lighthouse itself. I like the clouds in the distance. I think it might be interesting what this would look like with a cotton ball sky.... Maybe I'll play around with it in my editing to find out. :-)

I'm still learning to use Photoshop. I have a lot to learn! Play away, I'd like to see what you do to it. :)
