This charming lighthouse was built in 1879 at Cape Neddick on the

Maine coast. Your comments and critiques are welcome. Thanks for

looking. Bill

It's a great pic, so please take my comments lightly. Ideally I'd like to see the foreground/background not split so evenly across the center. I realize your kind of forced into that by the light tower on right.

 

The other nit I'd say to try and fix at the same time, is that you are not capturing the flag very well. It looks like the flag is waving directly at us.

 

I'm wondering of you could walk just a bit to the left of where this shot was taken.. say 20 yds or so and get down low to the ground and perhaps catch the flag and change the horizon all at the same time.

 

Real nice shot though and makes me want to pack my camera and go to Maine.

Thanks for the comments, Steven. My recollection is that the flag was not waving at all (a billowing flag would have been nice!), and I was rather limited in my positioning inasmuch as I was standing at the edge of an embankment overlooking a rocky lagoon. It really is a wonderful location--York is a cute town well worth a visit after viewing the lighthouse.

I think I read somewhere that this is the most photographed lighthouse in the US. I have a copy of it in my portfolio, just like so many others. Great job!
