When I happened to notice this man walking along the pier... I was really hoping the lighthouse lights would come on and light things up in that sort of way they seem to do in the movies, but it turns out this lighthouse is really not so light! It just has a crappy red beacon on it that is very tiny, and so, I didn't even include it in this shot. What do you guys think?

I only see one man. (am I wrong on the title, "2 man in fog"?)

Obviously low key, which, in and of itself is not a problem, but I think this shot may have too little by way of differentiation between the man (men?) and the background.

End result, it does not really hold my interest. Not enough there to be moody or spooky.

Also, it's going to be a challenge to print!

Thanks guys,
Its called "2 man" only because its the second version of that scene that I shot. There was only one man, sorry that was misleading. It is a bit brighter in Lightroom 3 than it appears here... but I agree... its not that great of a shot. I wasn't sure if there was much I could do with it or not. Guess not... I'll toss it! Thanks. :D

Recycle bin. It's way too underxposed that even if it was shot in RAW you'd get some crazy artifacts and noise from upping the exposure to "acceptable" levels. Granted, "acceptable" is very subjective.
