[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
51 meter tall Calais Lighthouse - one of the tallest buildings in the city of Calais. It's worth climbing to the top - very good view of city center and the port.
The blue color of sky is not enhanced in post-processing at all. This is natural effect of polarizing filter. It just happened that sun was almost at 90 degrees angle, so polarizing filter increased saturation a lot.

Hello Linas,
Super composition!
The white lighttower is perfectly exposed and I like the contrast with the deep blue sky!
Well done!

Nice perspective in a very graphical image, and this splendid sky is a bonus (I love the filters :)).
