Wonderful colours Ken - and the light is magical. I'm not generally over keen on the use of filters but in this case it has certainly enhanced the shot, in a subtle way. I wonder if the file size has detracted a little from the sharpness, although the slight softness does add to the mellow mood. Best regards, Roberto

Hi Ken,

Low light can create miracles and this is a good example! Wonderful picture. As said before, beautiful light and a good atmosphere over it.
The filter explains how well you captured the sky but it does not explain the mood you captured! I use the grade 2 and 8 filters quite often. You must have used some filter in post processing for the mood, the little soft touch. Surely not Neat Image, maybe some filter of VirtualPhotographer? Any pp filter? ;-)

Thanks for sharing!!

Greetings, Dennis

Hi Ken,
A very nice compo with the poles on the foreground and the houses and the lighthouse in the back.
The low light on the lighthouse and the clouds is beautiful and gives a very nice soft effect on the rest of the photo.
Well done,
Harko

Hello Ken, a very well composed shot; the posts echo the lighthouse and the chimneys pointing up to that impressive sky.There is an interesting mood to it all.I like the pools of water that just add a little light to the rocks.Well done.
TFS, regards Jean.
