Pieter,
Welcome to TE! This is a very nice 1st post!
Your composition is great placing the lighthouse on one side of the frame while the grassy mountain lead the eye through the photo. The low hanging cloud that is resting on the mountain is fantastic. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and DOF.
TFS,
Asa

This is a really cool shot there is so much to look at it. The lighthouse caught my eye and my fiancee noticed the clouds in the background. Very beautifully seen, tfs.

What a splendid site for a lighthouse. I like your composition and the vivid colours in the scene. The unusual cloud formation sweeping across the background adds another dimension to the photo. Well done Pieter and welcome to TE.

Hoi Pieter,

eindelijk maar toch een kritiek op je mooie foto ;-) Ook ik heb niets technisch toe te voegen, (haha mijn technische kennis op dit gebied reikt ook nog niet bepaald ver) maar ik wil wel iets zeggen over de prachtige kleuren: dat groene, groene gras en dan dat wit en vooral dat rode element van de vuurtoren, dat vind ik er prachtig tegen afsteken. En die wolken op de achtergrond, die vind ik ook prachig. Mooie compositie, mooie lichtval, ja je had echt mazzel met de weersomstandigheden: perfect!

Zie je morgen!
groetjes van Josien
