Nice shot. I've got this in my top 10 for this challenge. I like the minimalism of it. I like an image that I'd seriously consider using as a desktop, and this falls into that category. I would have like to have seen more detail in the area below the light, though, given the basic rules for this challenge, this would not have been possible without overexposing the light. The border doesn't work for me... think it would have been stronger without it... but that's only my opinion. Well done... I hope this does well.

I thought they kept you from running into land? They are beacons of safety. But, I get your point and it's an excellent photo to me. 10

Back to comment and bump: This image is technically strong and well captured. I'm bumping this from a 7 to a 10, as it is the strongest of the non-studio shots in the challenge. Well done and good luck.

Very average. I like the composition but the image doesn't do much for me. 4/10
