I live in Kilauea, Hawaii so it is fitting to have a photo of the Kilauea Lighthouse.

There were plenty of seabirds, there is one by the lighthouse, and Humpback Whales off shore. Too far for my lens to get the whales. :-{

Loved your lighthouse when I visited. Yes, BIG birds all around the place. Nesting site the other side of the cove? I think so.

neat old lighthouse, would like to see a night shot during a full moon. Kilauea looks like a great place to live.

This is grand! I wonder about the history of the lighthouse, and if it is still in service.

I like the way that the bird seems to be flying past, just ignoring the tourists.

Oh, I was there in December! We waited for a long time to see some whales, but they chose not to show. It's a lovely place.

ahh the gout is better? (hope so!) the requisite island lighthouse...I'd be on the ground, shooting UP :)
I think you did well with the exposure variation: the lighthouse, ocean, grass & you caught a flying seabird! gosh, after NYC, this is truly a paradise eh??

Lovely lighthouse; the metal/glass enclosure around the light is really pretty. And that ocean just goes on forever. Lovely scene, even with tourists.

Thanks! a very pretty traditional lighthouse. I like the people in the shot, too. Lovely place to live, I enjoyed the shots in your portfolio. One of the best things about the side challenges is the chance to view new portfolios.

Looks like a beautiful summer day!!! envy.. I love the sparkle of the glass in the lighthouse. I bet it looks pretty at night! Nice capture of the flying bird. Too bad about the whales, though.

Looks very idyllic - especially with the little people walking around. Love that you caught a bird in flight.
