Great shot Stpehen! I can't understand why this doesn't have more critiques. The telephoto effect is used well here, bringing the distant lighthouse right up to the neaby cliff. Nice contrast too!

The lighting and compostion are really great here. The haze may be a bit of a bummer, but it does give a sense of depth.
