This is an old one, I haven't visited the site in ages.
I'm afraid we will have to agree to not agree.
I sorry but I can not see a lighthouse.
The horizon line is the line where the water meets the sky. I see it as very near the mid point of the shot.
While there are some warm soft glows in the image for me the glaring hot sun unfortunately dominates.
Thanks for reminding me of Usefilm, I think I may post again.
Joe

First off Joe, Thank you for your comment. I do not know how I missed it but I did.
While I respect your opinion on how oyu would have taken the shot. I have to disagree with you.
I Captured exactly what I was going for with this shot. I wanted the warm soft glows of the sun and the siloutte of the light house.
If you notice the top part of the picture which is truely the horizon line is in the upper third of the shot and leading the eye down and through the shot.

I have two main issues with this shot. I don't like to see the bare sun in a shot. The camera can't handle the bright light and clipping occurs with no data recorded on and near the sun, you see pure white. I wait until the sun dips below the horizon or a cloud. Often this is when the sky really lights up anyway and your get some magnificent colours. Second the composition, you have placed the horizon very close to the middle of the image. A horizon which is at or near the lower or upper third points of the image is much more interesting and pleasing to the eye.
Best regards,
Joe

Michele:
Thank you for your comments on my work and for adding me as a friend.
Yes I see a LOT of potential with you photography abilities.
You have a fantastic eye.
The main problem with posting to the web is; EVERYONE'S computer is different. Images do not look the same from one computer to the next.
Here is what I try and do.
First thing I did was obtain a program that you can use to work-flow your images. Second thing that I did(and STILL do) is Ask for my friends give me tutorial on how to properly work-flow an image.
So if you have images that you would like to have work-flowed and be given a tutorial on how its done and more importantly WHY its done, Please feel free to ask me. MY EMAIL ADDRESS is sam@samgraziano.com
Send me a image explain the way the shot looked, I then will build a tutorial and show you step by step HOW to properly work-flow a photograph.
Michele, remember...I don't always get it right....because photography is so subjective.
That is the MAIN reason why I still post to photography sites. To build my love for this craft and grow my abilities.
I hope you take me up on my offer. I will help you with anything that you want help with, that way you can transform yourself from a happy snappy person into a Awesome photographer that I know taht you will BE!!!
My Best Regards
Sam III
