Thank you all for the comments. As you can see, I stink at all other photography cept LIGHTHOUSES! lol Well, maybe not all, but I definitely do better with something I'm passionate about.
Might have pulled a slightly higher ranking if I had usedTHIS CROP but I couldn't stand to let the great texture of the rocks & sand be left out.
Yes, I did use a polorized lense. I almost always do for the lighthouses. Even with using it, the originals are still lacking in color... ORIGINAL
I always up the saturation in the camera software before bringing it into Photoshop to fine tune.
On a happy news note, I just found out that the alternate cropping version is going to be in a local magazine, Long Island Parenting News That brings me up to 4 publishings (3 local mags & 3-5 pics in a book, Long Island Lighthouses: Past & Present) all due out in the next few months. Needless to say, I'm VERY happy. It's FINALLY HAPPENING!!! :o)
