perhaps a bit OOF.

I don't think this is an HDR...but did you do some dodging and burning?...something is off in your photo...you have a nice landscape but I don't know what it is that is off

Like the cloud mass behind the lighthouse.

Wonderful composition, nice perspective and great detail and textures on the foreground.

I think this should have been either one way or the other, the little bit of color left is coming over as a distraction rather an asset. imo

A rugged coast, nice scene. Looks a bit dark and contrasty to me.

i like all the rocks in this that lead up to the lighthouse, creating different lines and interest

Landscapes for me have too really be crisp. This is off for me. I would have like have seen the lighthouse sharper.

Nice processing, a bit noisy though, good composition IMO

Lighthouse look a bit OOF. Nice seascape, with sharp rocks - makes the need for a light obvious.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 06:43:18 PM
interesting scene - well done
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 05:40:00 PM
I would have liked to see the lighthouse sharper - not sure if it is depth of field issue or camera shake. If this were sharper and the red i the lighthouse more saturated this would go up 2 or 3 points. (5)

Very strong contrasts but a beautiful view. Nice red and blue.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

That is a rugged coastline. The picture is a bit dark as far as the rocks go and it seems grainy.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 07:09:03 PM
Looks very hazardous for sailing through!!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 05:10:54 PM
good location and timing, but it seem out of focus
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 05:09:38 PM
I like the post processing on this. The image has a very gritty feel to it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 03:18:51 PM
The lighthouse looks so otherworldly..
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 02:51:41 PM
Very stark colors, strong and bold shapes. I feel the overpower the lovely lighthouse.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 01:41:24 PM
The water seems so turbulent and it's balanced by the turbulence of the clouds, very nice composition.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 01:37:57 PM
I think the foreground is a bit overpowering compared to the lighthouse.. maybe a crop would help.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 09:35:08 PM
Good shot. Wish the lighthoiuse was more in focus.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 11:27:43 AM
i would crop a little more from the bottom, giving the light house a little more focus, colors are a little flat as well.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 10:50:01 AM
Nice shot, I like the ruggedness.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 09:54:33 AM
No wonder they have a lighthouse with all the rocky terrain!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

taming the rugged landscape... i love the sharp lines throughout:) 9

Not sure that the title relates to the image, but it's not a title competition. *grin* I like the composition... and the almost BWness of it... with that sudden pop of red and blue at the top.
