Originally taken in RAW. I increased the color temp and tint to give it a sepia tone. With the sunshine falling down between the clouds, it worked better than just the regular blue sky.

    A lot of people are saying they like this version better but don't realize why they like it better. The reason, again, is composition. There is motion in that the eye travels in a circle from the cloud then down the light beams to the lighthouse then to the left-hand bank then back to the cloud then to the lighthouse, etc. But there is also stability provided by the dark stable masses of the pier and the left-hand bank which gives balance between the left and right hand sides of the picture.

    Like this version a lot. How do you get the light rays effect? I've seen a lot of pictures here with them. Is it a slow shutter speed? @rhyno: I come here once-a-day, but to do a total accurate survey you would have to ask other people who don't always leave comments...

    @trout - I totally agree. Both photos are awesome. I think this one stands out a little more though. I remember thinking that I wanted to see what was off to the left of the lighthouse when I saw the first one. Both made it to my downloads folder, and rate as some of my favorites. I especially love the visible sun rays (or God-fingers, as one of my old classmates called them). Perfect day for a shoot there.

    Isn't this picture nearly identical to one of your previous submissions? (http://interfacelift.com/wallpaper_beta/details/1785/sunshine.html) The only major difference is that it's shifted slightly to the left. They even have the exact same name. Great picture, by the way.

    Personally prefer the other version but still love it and have put it on the rotation. Why do lighthouses photograph so well? In my collection I must have at least 20 photos of lighthouses and a lot of them would rate as some of my favourite photos. Strange huh?

    I saw the thumbnail for this in the widget and thought... "I've seen this before" then I read the description and thought... "I swear I've seen this before" Then I looked down and saw that I had, indeed, seen this before. I like this version better. As with the first one, I really like the color. I think the composition of this is stronger though. You're not left wondering what the lighthouse is illuminating like the first one. @rhyno: I have the IFL dashboard widget, and use my dashboard at home and work extensively throughout the day, so if you count that, I check IFL 3-4 dozen times a day. If you only count how often I visit the site, that depends totally on how often it is updated. Usually once, sometimes twice a day.
