"Last Light in Mukilteo"

Does it work for you compositionally?

Nice lighting. I like the cropped version, the slightly asymmetrical is much more engaging.

I prefer the more open feel of the uncropped version. The porch frames the lighthouse beautifully. Though the subject is dead center, the porch gives the illusion of the lighthouse not being centered

really nice lighting, i liked the uncropped as well

The lighting beautiful. There is a soft warm glow to the image. I also like the uncropped version. Very nice!

What a charming place!

Your photo reproduce the peaceful mood of this scene very well. There are tons of sunset/sunrise pictures on PN, yet most of them are "you see one - you see all"; but this one is not like them. Congratulations!

Very nice composition and light :)

Exquisite composition, incredible control on exposure, very nice framed image again, Wilson!!! Best regards

beautiful wide perspective comp

Hey Wilson ~ from what I remember, you must like this lighthouse and dwellings.

To try and answer your question, does one have to be better, they are both great, just different. I may possibly get a better 'feeling' from the more open porch.

Looks like they've repainted since you last presented photos of this spot.

I like the " breathing space" in the uncropped version, even both are nice but slightly different.

 

Beautiful light, and well cropped, as the porch is like framing the lighthouse.

 

Nice to meet you again Wilson.

uncropped, no doubt
