Another good shot of your Lighthouse JimboB. I like how you isolated it and the angle you chose. Owd Timer was probably right about the knees cracking.
I like the vantage point on this one, Jimbob, looking from down to up on this pretty white lighthouse. Wonderful cloud filled sky for background too. Nicely done and the vertical seems a good choice too.
Dearest Jimbo, This is a very good shot and its phallic connotations are the bonus - for me [LOL] Yours SAM *my Goodness, it is still so early and the kids will start asking you questions about the adjective I have just used* LOL
You picked a great day for this shot. Those threatening overcast skies are a stark reminder why light houses were constructed in the first place. The focus and contrast in the foreground really adds some impressive depth to the shot of the light house.
I got out my laser level. The shot seems to be left leaning by 0.0003°. Additionally I have a comment/questions. I have always heard that centering the subject is the last best alternative. Any reason why this isn't offset or do you not subscribe to that premise. Just wondering because I think the posting looks wonderful.
I enjoy this lighthouse, Jimbob. Would have had another opininon when I had seen a lighthouse that close during my active career, lol. The dramatic sky is a fine bonus, mate.
There is a Marblehead north of Boston with some of my relatives there.I am quite sure there would be a lighthouse there too.You got those clouds to work for this so well with your low angle..Great Photo .
Perspective is everything and you sure got this right. The looming sky just adds to the overall feeling leaving you with a great photographic composition. Nice job.
Jimbob - POV is excellent. The foreground rock on which this light is built offers a unique perspective. The trees behind the light offer contrast for similar tones of the light and the sky. Thad
In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest, where no one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art. ~Rumi~
My goodness! Just an awesome shot...I am always in favor of dramatic skies. This must be a beautiful place. Thank you Jim...you certainly know how to choose your opportunities. Your composition is impeccable.
Great perspective on this JB..I bet yer knees creaked when standing back up too!...
