Bev drove us to Cape May, NJ and we had a marvelous dinner. Then we to the Cape May National Park...oh whatever is it call...something like that, where the light house is and the bird sanctuary. Shot some of the bird sanctuary and some other stuff and then the sunset started and I snapped away. Hadn't shot a good sunset in so long, I don't want to think about it. But the clouds on the drive down sort of gave a hint that this would be a good one. Thanks, Bev! (BTW, Bev LOVES lighthouses...so this is especially for her.)

Sure wish we had 720 all the time.

Putting the lighthouse either on the left 1/3 or right 1/3 would make it better, I feel. Having it right in the center makes it feel uncomfortable. I love the sky. Cropping from the left, with the little sticks in the lower left corner would be good also.
