A very nice composition. The location of the moon is well placed and the interesting outlines and shapes, with the lights and reflection giving depth, it is very fun to look at.

Thanks

Claudio,

This is a wonderful image, and the warm low angle light with all the snow makes it seem all too inviting. It looks like winter is already there.

Dora,

I love this image, with the brooding sky. The colors and perspective come to life. I have to admit, the title makes me think of an old Starship song, "We Built This City" which I presume is referring to San Francisco.

Thanks
Dana

Jim,

I enjoy this picture, I really like the composition. With the rocks in the foreground and the deep red lighthouse, standing high in the image, it is well framed, and makes the lighthouse have it proper prominence.

Thanks
Dana

Jim,

This literally puts everything into perspective. For whatever reason here on TE, it seems that anything "American Patriotic" is played down. I appreciate the honor of the red, white and blue. I also enjoy the picture. As my father, and all of my uncles were veterans of WWII, I thank you.

Patrick,

Again, you have captured more than an image, you have caught a person's soul, an interaction with you, and ultimately with me, the viewer.

Thank you.

Patrick,

This has to be one of my all time favorite photographs. The sum of the framing, the color, the balance, the texture and contrast, combine for a superb image!

Maggie,

The first thing I notice when viewing the picture is the various textures. The time of day when this was photographed provides such an emphasis on the surface textures. It really gives the eyes something to play with.
The muted colors provide just enough extra information to give a sense of reality.

Very nice.

Marine,
This image carries many strengths, from color, texture, line, placement. It provides a very enjoyable experience for the eyes.

This is a great image, it shows the area very well, and with it's outstanding exposure, the lights of the city draw the viewer in, yet the mountains remain visible in the far distance. The layers of colors are very pleasing, and I find the shadows of the trees in the foreground adds to the sense of depth!
Thank You
Dana
