For those who have the T/S lenses, would it have eliminated the slight keystoning on this? I'm tempted to get one for these situations.....

Hi Michael,
I have not seen this light. Nicely positioned between the trees and very good use of the walkway as a leading line. I might remove the bench at the right mid frame edge. I am not a huge fan of the sign......but judging the curved walkway.........no way to not have it in frame. I may pull back a bit of the white detail in the lighthouse.........as on my monitor it looks a bit bright........but there should be a bit mor detail in there. Wait to see if others see that as I am on my laptop. Well composed and thought out image.
PS I'm seriously considering the TS lens also.

I think Robert has all 3 T/S lenses. I'm just debating whether to get the 24 or the 45 ...

Great comp. Whites do seem a bit hot. Clone in a ton of grass and sell it to some magazine or tourist board. =) I've been eyeing a ts lens as well. Just can't decide which.

Looks like postcard material! Nicely balanced. Definitely looks heavily visited, yet you've caught it with no one around.

You might consider using the perspective function of the Crop tool to straighten the lighthouse up slightly. An example of doing so posted here.

Picture perfect post card Michael - nicely presented scenic image. I like Noel's rotation and slight lightening.
