It is not the best time for photo artists, since the skies are not that nice anymore. And you? You simply do not care about it and make a great picture. You found a very nice motive, and made a little artwork out of it. Great.

Great perspective on this, Jen. Nice time of day for the setting and I see they have reflectors on the poles so no one falls into the water after dark!

You really get around. You need to start a site that says "where in the world is Jen now". A very nice photo of Manteo. Hopefully you enjoyed your stay at the Outer Banks area.

Does someone need to know how to capture a variety of nightmarish lighting condiditons all in one photo and get it right? Then study this one. The water would normally be a problem with detail washout. The white lighthouse-to capture it without losing detail is a problem. The grey sky would normally be a problem. Put them all together in one composition and you have a real challenge on your hands. But, you got it perfectly. if I wore a hat, I would bow and tip it to your expertise.

I found the posts to be especially interesting in this perfect capture. I was wondering if the lights that are affixed to them were giving them that painted look, as if they had been put through a filter. Gee, I wish I had half the knowledge and skill you possess...this is just super in every way and on every plane :)PJ

Very well done as everyone before me has noted. I also like the symmetry and the way the red roof stands out from all the greyness.

The lighthouse has a welcome look to it. I'd wager on a stormy night it is a good place to be or to see. The moss tells the direction it faces. I wonder if it is manned or automated?

Additional objects to the symmetry makes this picture all the more interesting. Well done. And thanks for sharing.

This one is different. I love the picture. Like the way you used the dock as center line to the lighthouse.
