*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*

An appealing image that is assumed to meet the challenge.

I get the opportunity to comment again. It is a very invigorating scene with the wild seas crashing around the man made structures you can feel their fury. The two reds dominate the image in a pleasing way working well together with the scene and your composition makes them an integral part of the whole. As I said before I think there is a lot more potential in post processing to bring out more from that sky to add to the drama of the scene, it needs the contrast increasing to add a sense of broodiness and foreboding.

All in all a lovely image, apologies for the delay, Sid

Beautiful shot. I love that lighthouse. I have to get there again and do some more shooting.

Great capture. The two reds are very dominant and work well together against the green hues of that stormy sea, I just feel the sky lets it down a little, I think there's still some scope left in the sky. Good luck

Just goes to show that you don't need good weather to take a good photograph. Good action & I like the pano crop too
