 ...revisiting the Lighthouse at Point Abino, from a different angle as my July '09 Free Study entry. Also, a different post-processing routine. Wonder if anyone will remember this shot? It got 8 faves, so we'll see. :-)

Not a fan of the halos you've got going on.

Lovely composition. processing a bit on the down side and can see halo/glow around this building.

the deep rich tones used in processing work well here - but the halo from the processing (especially noticeable around the lighthouse) really works against it

Post processing can be improved , the halo from your post processing is distracting, 6

Virtually perfect. Excellent choice of the sepia. I actually like the haloing, but I'm sure you're getting tagged for it......8

I like the processing on this, the only thing I can see to improve would be the slight haloing in the sky around the tower.

Feels very grand. The sepia works well.

this is phenomenal. the only thing I can see to critique is that there seems to be a halo around the tower? otherwise beautiful in every way.

The sepia tone really adds a lot to this. Very nice.

Good luck sir!

Nice setting and composition. Not loving the halo around the structure.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Sorry, not a killer shot, and here's why, notice that halo around the tower and the rest of the building? Yep, that kills the shot, otherwisetthey'll help you get that halo issue worked out.

great great light here... nice subject, good composition, good editing, but what I prefer is the light... congrats.

A very nice image, but the editing is too evident. Dodging needs to be more precise.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very nice but the dodging around the tower is a little distracting

Would love a smoother lighting transition around the Light house.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice composition, but it is hurt a bit by the burning in of the tower and the spill over to the sky.

Love the lighthouse, so interesting. Very good composition. Not overly fond of the sepia or the halo around it, sorry.

good shot, the hallowing bothers me a little though, like its glowing.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Can't wait to see where this is. How pretty and I like the tones and POV of your shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This is almost very nice. The structure and landscape choice are good, I also like the details and colouring, but I can't figure out for the life of me why you would leave halos around the building in a shot which you have obviously taken a lot of time over!
