 Neist Point, Isle of Skye. A composite of two images, one for the scenery and one for the white-tailed eagles. The birds are maybe a bit oversized, but I wanted them to be recognisable, therefore I made a selection of the lighthouse and enlarged it as well to obtain a better proportion.

+1 here as well. You got my top vote because clearly this is the best comp of the bunch imho. Beautiful exposure(s). Fantastic composition. The lighthouse, the tiny boat, the two birds are all perfectly balanced. Did you use a grad ND for the scenery? Selective color looks a little pushed, but not too much. This should be a very marketable image if you are so inclined.
