The East Point Lighthouse is a local landmark that has been photographed and painted by many, many artists in our area. I have returned to the lighthouse many times myself with new ideas for fresh images. I have been working with Fractalious and other plugins quite a bit lately, so I thought I would try working with a texture overlay this time around. With Halloween approaching I felt a dark and moody feel might be in order. This is a 6 image hdr that was processed with Nik HDR Efex Pro 2. A texure from Shadowhouse was added, and masking work was done on the actual lighthouse. That file was further worked in Nik Color Efex Pro 4. A few final selective brush adjustments were made in Lightroom. I'm not too sure about the flag on the left. Is it too distracting? All thoughts are always appreciated.
