OK. Loses some in the shadows.

I... er... don't see the lighthouse, your title confuses me...

I don't really see a lighthouse here, nor do I get the sense of being in beautiful Hawai'i, this is too dark for my tastes and doesn't have enough substance or color.
Post actions
It's a bit dull, largely underexosed, and lacks a clear subject. Sorry.
Post actions
I like the backlight shot.
Post actions
Not enough here to interest me, I fear. *sorry*
Post actions
Silhouette is nice, but without the title I'd have a hard time figuring out what this is.
Post actions
It may be my monitor, but I can't find the lighthouse...

focus, exposure issues imo

There may be some extra JPEG compression taking away some detail. I see some artifacts right around the high contrast edges of the outcropping. Your file size is only 49k and you could have used up to 200k for this challenge. Compression kills detail. When you save your file, always use the least compression you can get away with and still come in under challenge limits.

Interesting shot. I like the soft feel to everything in this image.
Post actions
nice contrast from the grass to the sky
Post actions
Focus could have been sharper and I don't care for the lighting.
Post actions
sorry but I havent find anything on this pic that Id like...
Post actions
Bit dull, dark and uninspiring. I don't really understand how this can be your best photo ever taken and hidden gem.
Post actions
looks too much like a snap shot, needs more interesting features
Post actions
This lacks a key, meaningful focal point and the 50:50 split of composition doesn't help anyway. If this indeed an ancient ruin of a lighthouse then it's important to see some of its manufacture technique and textures, etc. SOme of that sunset glow could have been used to good effect and show us more of it, simply by moving around the subject.

I don't really see a lighthouse, just a pile of rocks on a hill. Photo is a bit dark for me.
Post actions
Um. Probably does not use a Fresnel lens. Bit dark on the foreground.

I'm not sure what I'm looking at.

Effective subject placement.

Your title interests me, and I look forward to reading any photographer notes you leave, but as a photograph in it's own right, there is nothing to keep my interest.
Post actions
Nice tones in the sky. I would like to see some more detail on the forground.
Post actions
Hmm. Not really that interesting the way it is presented here. Sorry.
Post actions
Nice simple shot. The colours are nice, and not overdone.
Post actions
Not really doing much for me.. Sort of just looks like rocks on a hill.

Interesting use of darks and lights. Very dramatic.
Post actions
I think that lowering the horizon to the lower third of the frame would be better for this shot.

Post actions
to dark...not enough detail...can't even tell there is a lighthouse foundation here
Post actions
Looks like a very old place. Must be beautiful when night is falling.
Post actions
Grass is very dark on my monitor and sky is kind of washed out. I think it would have more impact for me if I could see more detail in the foreground and more contrast in the sky.
Post actions
not a lot to interest me sorry
Post actions
It's an interesting silhouette but on my calibrated moniter it's hard to tell if there's more to this.
Post actions
I like the perspective but the lighting is a bit dark.

interesting image, but i would crop the grass more to reveal more sky.....
Post actions
I never knew that the polynesians used lighthouses. Cool silouette!
Post actions
mmm.... just not enough here to judge it in this challenge, and your score will probably tank. As a series, or in a minimalism challenge, I think I'd like it though.
Post actions
not the most impressing lighthouse I've seen :)
Post actions
This photograph could benefit from a stronger focal point.
Post actions
I have a problem with this because the colors are drab and there is really no interesting subject.
Post actions
Not sure what you're wanting to present, but the underexposure is a real issue in this image.
