Greetings from the Critique Club!
An interesting photo. Rule of thirds is followed well here, but right behind the lighthouse is a busy cityscape, which draws the eye away from the focal point. The saturation does look quite heavy. You want people to see the picture, not the post-processing! You probably could have cropped out everything on the right from the yellow sign on the building to the border and not hurt this shot at all. To be perfectly honest, this looks like a snapshot taken with a p&s.
The aperture and shutter speeds are fine for a shot of this nature, but if you shot at ISO 640 you were likely shooting handheld. Invest in a tripod and don't be afraid to use it. Then you can shoot at f.22, ISO 200 (or less) and leave the shutter open for a few seconds. That will give a greater sense of place and being, not to mention the razor-sharp focus so loved on this site.
Feel free to PM me with any questions,
Susan |

| I like the little rays of light here and there. The blues are a tad too saturated for my liking, though. |
