Hi dear Ray

So stunning architecture image in a perect and tight framework at all. So sharp and clear presentation as usual.

All the best, Takero

Hi Ray,
Impressive tower and great shot. I guess a lot of people would compose the lighthouse on thirds, whenever I find them I always do, but this shows why rules should be broken, the central compositn works pertly and emphasises the shape and height of the structure perfectly. Excellent framing and an enviable blue sky (I miss those). The little house at the bottom reminds me a small dog lying at its masters feet.
Cheers
Noel

Hola Ray

Lighthouses are attractive photo subjects as happens here with a well composed vertical frame, an incredible sky that helps with contrast and the charming little house at the side
Good work, regards

Hello Ray,
There's a kind of simple beauty in these two buildings that I like. One small, one tall, both very nicely catching the warm sunlight. It's a straightforward and pleasant photo.
Regards,
Gert

Hi Ray,
great vertical POV, which soars well the lighthouse upwards.

Well done!

Ciao BodieRay

A flawless photo of this old lighthouse. The characteristic little Lighthouse Keeper's cottage is the high-light for me, interestingly it seems to be a separate building to the lighthouse itself, which is very different to the lighthouses here in Oz. Nice natural colours, good sharpness and of course excellent choice of the vertical frame.

Well done
Lisa

Hi Ray
sorry, its been a while since I've taken a look at your gallery - and I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to look closer at this lighthouse.

lighthouses are a subject that are a must, don't you think?

the black and white rings really stand out, and of course the little lighthouse keepers house is a bonus too.

a fantastic piece of history here, love it
cheers
