(1) COMPOSITION (CONTENT) The composition of the photograph has followed all of the tried and true rules of composition - especially the rule of thirds. The colors are bright and vivid and give the photograph a life of its own.
(2) BACKGROUND I am thinking that the background here is the sky and the hill top. The sky is a very nice color that compliments the tourquoise water and the red of the lighthouse. Unfortunately the hilltop is rather cluttered with trees, and except for the lighthouse, has no place for the viewers eye to stop. Once the viewer has seen the lighthouse, his eye tends to wander through the photograph.
(3) CAMERA WORK ,TECHNICAL Exposure seems right on the mark. Composition is good but unimaginative.
(4) DIGITAL PROCESSING ,TECHNICAL I am thinking that a closer crop would have brought the lighthouse closer and made it more of the subject of the photograph rather than just another piece of it.
(5)MEETING THE CHALLENGE This photo does a very good job of meeting the challenge.
(6) MY OPINION ON THE PHOTO The subject here is very interesting. I think perhaps this is a photo that you might try to reshoot. This is a great location to get some really neat shots. I would try different times of the day and different angles as well.
Nice colours. Too bad we can't see all of the light house though. Love the colour of the water. Alot better than the brown water around here :) Good job.
And just off to the right you have a scenic view of Dubois park. Intresting thing here is this lighthouse was owned by Johnson and Johnson. This is a wonderful inlet. The beaches are wonderful there. Miss it alot but will be moving back to Stuart any day now. You took this from the bridge on US1. I think they have a fish walk under the bridge. Might have provided for a better picture. Nice shot.
This lighthouse really needs to be the focal point of the picture. Some of the water can go. I promise I won't miss it. I think that a tighter crop would do this pic a lot of good. As for challenge relevance, that might hinder that a little. If it were me, I'd take my chances with a tighter crop - Inspzil
