Cape Hatteras

Finally got out and took a few photos this weekend. Cape Hatteras lighthouse.

Great shot of a famous lighthouse, my wife just loves it. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice photograph. A little dark and perhaps a little late in the day as most of the lighting is gone, but it still came off rather well.
good work

The coast was nearly clouded over at about 1000 feet as I raced out to cape Hatteras to try to get this shot. As I drove south the clouds started dissipating, and by the time I got to the cape they were nearly gone. By the time I'd set up, the sun was just above the horizon and all of the clouds were gone. I was really hoping for some light reflecting off the bottoms of a cloud layer with the lighthouse in the foreground. Can't rely on Mother Nature... Instead I darkened this a bit, looking for that deep dark sky look. Didn't quite accomplish it.

Now that I have finally gotten out and explored a bit here, I plan on revisiting this area. There are a lot of historic lighthouses along this stretch, along with the point, although disputed, of the first powered flight.

I like the way the remaining sun lights up the red base of the lighthouse. Does the lighthouse lean to the left?

Good Shot. Nice Lighting.

Beautiful shot. Did you use a blue grad filter?

This is a lovely shot but it needs the tilt corrected to make it the best it can be. Hit Ctrl T in PS(E) and drag out the handles until your happy with the correction for both the lighthouse and the building at the base.
