The lighthouse again
It's the lighthouse again. I think i like these ones better, but I still think I need to work on it. Ss I mentioned before, these lighthouses are surrounded my Flagstaff Hill Maritime museum. It's an lode worlde village with heaps of old buildings and stuff and the view from up there is just magnificent. Well, Joey is camping there tonight with the girl guides. The plan was to drop her off at 5:00pm and then go and take pics. Well we got there at about 5:00pm and I spent the next hour and a half putting up tents. It was like... put up the tent, move it 5 feet to the south, realise one zip is broken, turn it around 180 degrees, discover half the pegs were missing, pull out the ones holding the bottom down , use them for the ropes, finally get it kinda organised and then move on to the next one. They are only going for one night -aaarrgghh. So after all this I didn't have much time (or light) left to take pics. the really frustrating part was that the views were so much better from inside the village where the guides were, but my camera was in the car outside and once I went out I couldn't get back in. For something a bit different i thought I would use my 70-200 lens for these.

oh, I really like the composition of these. Great contrast of colors in the second, and I think the houses frame the lighthouse nicely in the first.
that second one is so nicely saturated/colored!
Did you pick which cross to enter in the contest by the way? I'm just waiting to hear if you won!!
Oh, just read yesterdays post and see you did enter #1. Now we'll just wait:)
These look great, the red and white lighthouse is so cool.
Patti--I really like the second one--love the fact that there are no distractions from the wonderful lighthouse. The colors are so crisp and vibrant!
love your composition and color! i am definitely getting the "feel" of the old village from these...great job!
These are beautiful! The color is so vibrant and the focus looks perfect. Excellent job! Do you have any more to share?
