This is the St. Anthony Lighthouse seen through a gun hole in St. Mawes Castle in Cornwall. The lighthouse was the set for the television series 'Fraggle Rock'!

I like the shape of the opening but find the foreground frame is essentially just providing an uneven border here rather than being an object in it's own right. That said, I like the image very much. The composition of what one can see through the frame is excellent - position of the lighthouse works very well. Cloud detail provides nice balance.
I love the subject, great colors and focus. One thing that bothers me: the frame doesn't create more interest to the subject. I feel like the frame is there only to take the challenge.
This is a nice picture for this challenge, but I think it would have been better if the horizon didn't run through the center of the picture. Maybe if the lighthouse were lower it might have a more dramatic effect. Other than that, this shot came out very well.
this is *very* exquisitely framed. I think the border is a little much, as the framing of the window the viewer is looking for is plenty (or cut back to one simple line of white to off balance on black backgrounds)
I love the shot. The frame here unfortunatelly messes more than adds. It's way to blurry, but I understand it wouldn't be easy to make it sharper. The same pic without the frame and with the light house more towards left bottom corner would be a BEAUTIFUL shot (I mean as stand alone, this challenge was frame and there it is). Well done 7
