| nicely composed - love the contrast of the black and white silo (?) and the light against the dark colors. Good one! |

| Stars and a lighthouse. How can you miss? This is very, very nice - the light does not overpower the shot, and you can see the stars quite clearly. |

| Voted earlier coming back to comment now. Wow! This is a beautiful shot of this lighthouse! Love the beams of light that radiate out like rays. I also find it appealing that this is a night or very early morning shot and you can see the presence of stars. Great lighting such that we can see the bold striping on the lighthouse. Very scenic and beautiful! |

| I really love this. The composition is great, the exposure perfect, and your use of noise reduction is perfect for the image - makes it look almost like an illustration. |

I have come back to bump this one. My first reaction was that it was pretty nice, but that the colors were too cool to really suit me, and I slotted it in the 7's, a decent score. But now I am back, and I confess to being slightly mystified by this scene, or, rather, by how you created it...
ON the surface of it, this seems simple enough: one exposure for the structures and the sky, and at the end of the exposure or during the exposure the light swept through in its arc.
OR, possibly, a true HDR image, with several exposures, accomplishing same as above.
That's not a mystery, particularly. But I'm looking at the stars, and the hint of mist in the sky, and that's like *one* thing; and I'm looking at the lighting on the tower and the shack, and that's like what, full-moon light? Sure seems to be. But, STARS so visible during a full moon? A little odd for up here, anyway.
So, ANTwho.... It's sharp as a tack, mysteriously lit, vaguely enigmatic overall, and of course I'm realizing the formerly-objectionable "cool" colors are exactly as they should be, for a moonlit exposure, so...
Bumpity-long-winded-bump!
BTW, nearly all my high scores are going to the odd and quirky-beguiling images that speak to me in this challenge; yours is one of the few landscapes to make it into the 9+ range with me. |

you need to revisit your post-processing on this before printing it large in order to bring out the beams. as is, it's nice, but it doesn't pop. it's one of my favorite subjects (check out my portfolio). here's one that's close to what i'm talking about (but it still needs some work). it really is incredible out there at that time of night, isn't it?
good luck! |

Wow. Beautiful. I hope this does well for you. The stark black and white and blue is very pleasing... The noise is distracting, but not overly so.
