Parker's Lighthouse

A nice evening having dinner at my favourite restaurant "Parker's Lighthouse"

in Long Beach.

i really like the nice bits colors coming out here. Really makes the image.

Great color and just enough detail in the rocks. Nice lighting. Think you have found a new friend in that camera. Well done.

Great shot! perfect composition and great colors!!

Perfect color and crop. I can see just the right amount of detail in the rocks too. Super!

love the bright colors.

 

Great lighting and detail throughout, strong composition Alec!

I really like the lighting in this, very vibrant, the glow from the lighting on top of the building just added that much more emphasis. Well done Alec

Very pleasant capture, Alec. Would it be even better to tweak the layering/feathering around the lighthouse to lessen the "aura" (due to PS)? I like all the colors you're able to squeezed out of it!

Good exposure, showing strong colors against good remaining color in the sky (you shot at the right time, to be sure), and the composition has strong lines. Some presentation details, to my eye, detract from the success of the original shot; mainly that it appears oversharpened and there is the halo around the top of the building that has already been mentioned. Enjoy.

Impressive night shot. I love the details, perspective and colors. Regards.

Thanks every for your comments.

 

On a particular note about sharpening from Marshall and Wilson. Yes. It looks oversharpened and the halo around the top of the lighthouse could have been toned down. I must admit I'm still quite new to Adobe PS CS as I work more with Paint Shop Pro 8. But now I think CS is more powerful although both has it's own merits. I try to use it as little as possible to make the image as it is.

 

Thanks again for commenting. Love the discussions and I'm sure many will benefit.
