Default Barnegat Lighthouse

Here are three images of the lighthouse I don't know which I like the best.


Frank

Original with some PP



Darkened the image for a silhouette look (fixed crop)



Added warm filter

I think I like the second one best. I visited Old Barney a few years back. Very pretty area.

Deffinatly the 1st one Frank, (my opinion) It's a wonderful capture just the way it is and I love the lighting. The second would be better if it was more shilhoutted. I like the warm filter as well.
Thanks for sharing this
Michael

Thanks for all the comments. I just don't like the way the sun shines on the front of the lighthouse. It looks like a glare across the front.

I just need to re crop it because it looks too centered n the frame.


Thanks
