Round 9 - Olympus; by Raphael

Mine (II). "Le Minou" lighthouse at dusk (not obvious). In Brest roadstead.

Wow, Raphael. This is easily one of my favorites from this round already. When this image popped up in my scanner, I was immediately impressed. A wonderful composition - very strong leading line, and the tones and textures are just superb! I really love the empty space in the sky - it really enhances your subject. Perfect - really!

Hi Shawn, Many thanks for your kind comment ! This shot was actually much more well-thought out than my first, but in restrospect, I would have let less empty sky (to my taste). But I am very glad you like it Best regards, Raphael
