another contra-jour shot. I've seen lots. This is better than most, but I still think it would have been better with detail in the shadows (which would have meant shooting a different time of day). Still, for what you tried to do, you managed it well. 7
Love the composition (interesting foreground and background, lighthouse perfectly at the top-left third corner), but the shadows are way too dark. This might have been a great place to try an HDR photo?
