Here are a few that were taken. We didn't spend a lot of time here this trip, which is highly unusual.

These are two of the more common shots.





Trying to find a little something different to shoot, I was trying to use the "board walk' as a tool to lead your eye out to the lighthouse. Aside from the lack of good color in these two, how is the compostition?





I would like some opinions on these as well if you have one.

Actually, I rather like the last shot. Very pretty sky with the wispy clouds. The tower stands out very sharply against it. Looks like you have several lines leading you into the picture with the walk that takes a sharp turn and then the fence by the tower.

I agree with Dave's comments on the last one, but I do like that second one, too. Almost gives the impression of a rambling prairie in the background.

Dave's comments are true but I like the next to last shot. I think it has a little more brightness and contrast to it yet you still get the openess of the area. They are all very nice.

Stephen, once again, nice work! The last one is definitely the best of the bunch. I like how you are working your compositions to lead your eye into the photo, as well as putting the tower off center in the frame. Keep 'em coming!
