C&C appreciated. Not sure if I should crop out more of the water.

I agree with the above comments. How far is this place from the coast guard training facility? I will be there this Friday.

The Coast Guard station is about 10 minutes from the lighthouse. If you are a fisherman the Coast Guard jetty is a great striper hangout.

i agree with cropping the sky and water however this does look a little noisy mind you that might be the processing on it, also you have halo's around the houses at the back and the top of the light house.

Thanks for the input. Looks like I need to start with the raw file and process over again. I want to get to the point were I can see this stuff without the need of someone pointing it out to me. All valid comments. Thank you again.

No Sir, I can't say I have that honor, but my best friends son is graduating from boot camp there this Friday and I am accompanying my friend there to see his son graduate. I wish I had time to cast a line, maybe another time. Thanks for the fishing tip ;-)a
