Default What is that thing? - Little Mark Island



First I thought it was a lighthouse, but then I said "No, it's way too small". When I showed this to someone else they thought it was a sailboat floating in front of the island. Then after some research I found out it's a granite tower with a light on it. It's an odd looking thing, but makes for a cool photo. Here is a link to a clear picture of it and some info, if interested:

Lovely Capture! I like the PP and the great silhouette. Thank for the interesting ling as well
It gives some understanding of the shot.
