OH MAN, 80 minimum on the c-index. If I see this in the booth it's getting a 10 from me. I created my own screen saver for my Macs consisting of water images and this one can't go in soon enough. Thanks for the submission and I'm jealous as h**l.

What a magnificent photo! It has all the things a great shot like this needs. The way the water is washing upon the shore, and the little curls here and there, those huge rocks in the foreground make the whole photo so much more wonderful. I love the lighthouse...and the colours of the water and sky. Wow, all I can say is wow..nicely done my friend. Verena

I set my background screens to change every 5 minutes on my office Mac, and your St. Mary's Lighthouse just came up on my 24" Apple monitor. It looks so d**n good there I just wanted to thank you again for posting it.
