Adamjl, regarding the white on the light house, that white is straight from the camera... I just used selective coloring in photoshop for the blues and greens.

kilowat....does your daughter teach music at Pan AM? I saw "string music" on your comment, and if so, Its a little funny cause im a music major there. What's her name? i might have had her for a class.

sparker1, can you elaborate on "detail missing on the lighthouse"? I really dont understand what you mean. Does it need more color, or contrast, or does the sky and grass draw more attention?

The missing detail I'm referring to is the texture of the lighthouse wall. You can see it on the left edge of the tower, but it doesn't show on the lighted portion.
