the compressed jpeg does not do this one justice. cleaned up the frame edge of stuff that was on the beach and a stray reflection of light in the water.

thanks for looking. your comments and critiques are appreciated.
I might crop off the last house with the light on, on the left border. Just seems out of place, though I know someone there might think of it as home! ;) Maybe cropping it to remove the first tall palm would work. Just a suggestion, but I think it would improve that area of the image.
Very nice, Harold. I love the feel of this image and, like Gus, want to be there. I especially like the color, and I also wonder about that. My first impulse was to
adjust it, but then I realized how sunset can play tricks with light, especially in tropical waters. So the greenish/yellow cast may be right on the mark.
Even if it isn't, I like it as is and (for once) do not feel a need to mess with it! Nice work!
(A slight CW rotation will put the lighthouse plumb.)
I also like this image, I appreciate the greenish tint to it, a very nice change of pace, and the wind give the image a lot of energy. I agree with cropping on the left, to concentrate the lights near the lighthouse.
cool image. do you have more? :)
