 This is the light room of the Dutch Island Lighthouse in Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island. It's a shame that most of the lighthouses have been replaced with sticks stuck into a rock with a light on top! Adjusted contrast and resized.

washed out sky makes this less appealling but, a good idea.

This must have been difficult to try to capture - I hope it wasn't dangerous! I like the concept & the title. I'd have liked more detail in the lighthouse top; it seems underexposed to me and yet the sky seems blown out. What beautiful water though! Perhaps a fill-in flash would have both captured more of the lighthouse & yet allowed you to decrease the shutter speed.

The hand rails are not sharp. Detail is lost in the tower. This seems like a hard shot.

I'm guessing this is the remnants of a lighthouse? From this POV its really hard to say.
