I'm sure others have pointed this out, but maybe the horizon/pier would work better along a line of thirds. Maybe?
I have a feeling this lighthouse is on another pic in this very challenge.

This is just so pretty.........very smart cropping to show the breath and scope of this image. Bumping up.

Great, just great, the long horizontal road gives a sense of lonelyness.

The composition here is well thought out and adds to the pleasure if viewing this image. 6, just-married

Very simple composition but effective with its message. I think it would have looked better if you applied the rule of thirds horizontally as the breakwater seems quite long.

Great use of a panoramic format. Love the colors and composition.

Aaah, The Portland Lighthouse in Chicago. I love the panoramic crop on this. The placement is good. The sky has just a little more grain in it than I like in my sky and the color could use just a slight boost i think to give the sky and the red roof a little more punch. (that's a personal preference thing). Over-all, a great shot...
Good luck 7
