This is an unusual perspective on a lighthouse. Focus is good. DOF is good. The halo effect may be from the sun behind it, but IMO detracts. Saturation is good. Contrast is good. My personal issue with it is that the subject is weak, or at least fails to hold my interest.

This is cool, a unique perspective & great color, a bit much pixelation, nicely done.

Love the perspective, and the colors are pretty, but I don't care for the halo around the subject. Overall though an impressive image.

I love the dramatic angle but am not a fan of the processing. seems a bit too much and i really don't like the halo around the lighthouse.

A little too much noise left in those clouds for me. Otherwise, great use of that lens!

The sky seems quite noisy. Great perspective, though.

Like the perspective and result. The burning and doding is a little much for my liking (seems to work for me), but still an image I would be proud of. Good Luck. 7.

does it really lean like this?

I like the idea a lot, but I think this would have worked better without the big halo around the lighthouse.
