Was waiting for sunrise at Portland Headlight and swithced gears to photograph Ram Island. had the 100-400 and 1.4 tele.........to try and capture the sun directl behind Ram Island Light. It wound up coming up wider right........so converted a full frame shot into a pano with the glowing sun. The FF had interesting clouds.......but i preferred the tighter pano look. Canon Mark 3 and the 100-400 combo set at 365mm and IO 200 and f16 for 1/30 sec......all tripod mounted. As always, comments welcomed and appreciated.

Surprised that you did not get any comments considering you linked the other well commented image from the landscape forum to this one.

Good composition with a good play of light on the clouds to make that interesting.

I love the huge sun, but I wonder if it wouldn't be a little stronger if the lighthouse made its entrance into the frame a full 1/3 from the left?

I would agree.......hope to make it back in the winter so that the sun is hopefully closer to the lighthouse.......we'll see.

Coming back to this one, i agree with David.
