I think this is a good idea - but it looks like the sky didn't cooperate with you (not very red). Where is the lighthouse? I wanted to shoot a lighthouse lens for the "Glass" challenge, but couldn't find one open to the public anywhere near where I live.
Not marking you down for this, but it's not really a superstition or urban legend. It's actually a trueism. I like the morning (or evening) shot of the lighthouse. I'm thinking the tree doesn't add anything to the image and should be cropped out. 8
Looks like a blue sky... Sailors should be safe. Still, very pretty shot. Tree on the right seems a bit unbalanced. Maybe a wider angle, with the tree in full silhouette?
Hello, Cabrillo National Monument! I've missed you!
The shot is nicely done, though I'd have to wish you'd amped some red in there, given the title and all... I like the placement of the flagpole and the bulge of tree.
I think this qualifies as a superstition instead of a proverb unlike some other entries. Nice subtle colors. We don't need hyperreality every day. Is this Bear? He likes subtle colors, but I haven't seen him do a lighthouse before. I'm not sure I like the tree on the right. 6
not much in the way of red skies here and although i think the tree on the right adds some balance to the photo I would like to see more of it. at least part of the trunk. just floating there it seems out of place.
Great photo, the lighting is great. I like the silohuetted grass in the corner, but the tree looks a bit odd to me sticking on the side like that. Very nice, 9!
