Very cool! Got a fav (thanks Marion) and a comment from Bear himself. :-D
And many, many comments from others' that are sincerely appreciated as well.
Not sure what to think about the horizon not level comment ... thought I had it straight (made several attempts) using the foreground land mass and the base of the lighthouse. The far shoreline curves around so that feels misleading I think (if leveled against that far shoreline the foreground tilts left). Ah well ... may try and tweak it again after the challenge is over.

You can use photoshop's skew tool to have BOTH horizons level, actually... It's a tricky situation. Link me to a larger JPG and I'll show you how if you wish.
This is really beautiful, and I like how you've done it, but at the same time the pastels seem almost weird. Still, I like it better now than I did on first pass, so bumpety-bump you go. I wish you'd leveled the horizon, though :-(
Simplistic, yet dramatic. Love the dark contrast of the trees and lighthouse agains the light, pastel colors of the sky and water. Beautiful capture! Well done
