Another sunrise...

Practice, practice, practice...

What would improve the composition (or anything else, of course)? A vertical with just the LH and sun?

Terry, I really like this shot as it is, but it feels like the LH has an ever so slight lean to the right. Maybe I am just imagining that, but you might check it to verify.

Excellent image Terry. I find myself wanting the lighthouse a little more to the left, and further from the sun. Everything else as is. No other nitpicks, love it! I especially like the glowing reflection of the sun on the water.

Terry I like it. The deep saturation, detail in the sky, the birds all make for a beautiful shot. I think straightening the the lighthouse is all I can see. An easy fix.

[OldClicker]

The water is level but the LH is vertical??? How would you fix this? (I'll also ask on the PP forum.)

Also, here is a cropped view.

Very powerful image. I see that the light house is either slightly leaning to the right (like Piza), or your lens is giving you a hard time. I don't know how to fix it ... grrrrr. Bet there's a way though.

Looks like a wide-angle shot with the lens tilted "back" just enough to produce a little keystoning of the LH. A little PP wizardry can fix. Cheaper than buying a PC/Tilt-Shift lens. Great sky conditions. Nice, sharp birds. Wish I'd been in your shoes at the time.

Incredible. Love the original as is. Very beautiful colours also. I wouldn't change a thing.

Shot at 330mm.

Thanks. We were there to see the Pinta & Nina replica ships a decided we might as well go early. It was a once in a decade light show. - Terry

WOW! really like it !

I don't see a problem with the leaning. Keep it as shot. If I were to crop, I would try to keep the bird that is just to the left of the other tower.

Thanks all. I've been trying various methods of 'straightening' the LH. I can't even really decide if it's actually leaning. - Terry

[Didache]

I definitely think it's leaning. It's one of those thing when, when you notice it, you can't see anything else!

Maybe it's an optical illusion? Either way, it's an extremely attractive image.
