The lighting really makes this special, Lyn. Especially the way it makes the lighthouse stand out against the grey skies. Looks like the sun had just come out after a passing storm. All that's missing is a rainbow.

Awesome work Lyn. The lighthouse looks to be standing strong regardless of oncoming weather.

Excellent image, Lyn - with the sun lighting up the lighthouse and that threatening dark sky above and the waves beginning to build up. "Batten down the hatches" I would say! :)

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
I love lighthouses. That one is kinda cute. A beautiful setting for it, too. Very nice, Lyn.

Very dramatic weather, cloudy and stormy. The lighthouse in bright light is very impressing.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
Nice lighting in spite of the weather, which is when these lighthouses are really needed, but I still prefer the old ones best of all. Excellent shot!

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??

every day is a gift......that's why it's called the present!!
Lyn - Exceptional scene - Late-day sun light casting wonderful shadows on the dunes while brightening the lighthouse and the choppy sea, with ominous clouds above - all creating a dramatic photo. Kudos! Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine
Oh yeah, that's a KEEP-PAH! The green water grabs the eye. The beautiful browns of the grasses set everything else in the image off. Great work.

That's a real beauty Eve. The dark and ominous sky makes a beautiful background for the sun on the lighthouse. :)

A grand capture; the lighting really helps to set the mood in your shot. A great view of the lighthouse and waters beyond.

There are always two people in every photograph: the photographer and the viewer. - Ansel Adams
Wow this is some capture Lyn, it looks as though the light is going to be needed soon, looks like a storm coming in.

I created a screensaver a number of years ago for my Macs that involves about 270 images, all having something to do with water. Guess where this excellent shot is going? It follows the rule of thirds nicely; the diagonals of sky, water, and beach all lead to the main subject matter; it tells a story, clearly giving me a sensation of wind and approaching storm; and includes a secondary and slightly less demanding subject, the main one being the lighthouse and the second the white-capped waves. That last also provides a natural antagonist/protagonist character in the violent and advancing waves vs. the steadfast and immovable tower. My only conundrum would be determining if it's the horizon line or the tower that is off 90 degrees by just a little bit. I'm guessing this was shot with a lens longer than 50mm, lending itself to a little perpendicular distortion. Thanks for sharing, Lyn.
