[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Stoer Head Lighthouse

This is a new lighthouse which I add to my collection on TE. I dont know why Iv left this one so long, its been on my hard-drive for a year now.

Stoer Head Lighthouse was designed and engineered by David & Thomas Stevenson, Thomas being the father of the famous novelist, Robert Louis Stevenson. The light was built in 1870 and has the characteristic of flashing white every 15 seconds with a range of 24 miles. The light was automated in 1978 and is now remotely monitored from the Board's offices in Edinburgh.

Stephen,
Your composition is great with the inclusion of the rocks in the foreground. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and DOF. The sky is great and provides a nice backdrop for the shot.
TFS,
Asa

Hello Stephen!
I like your picture for the colors (so vivid), the composition (rocks, sea, building and sky) and the POV - they all make such a wonderful scene - impossible not be interested even with the thumbnail!
It's a beautiful place indeed, however the photographer did a good job enhancing he beauty that already existed there!
TFS - Congratulations!

HI Stephen

Very beautiful and picturesque shot. Love the texture of the stone. The lighthouse is looking stunningly beautiful along with the deep blue water and spotted formation of the clouds. Good composition and great POV.

Hi Stephen,
Your presentation demonstrates amazing depth with very effective use of foreground and details to lead into the distant view of the lighthouse and the skies beyond. Excellent colors and interesting features. Very well done and TFS. Gerald

Hello Stephen,
