I like the shot…or what you were going for. A few things that jump out at me are that if you might have made more space in between the cross and the lighthouse it might be a stronger image. I don’t know if you could or not due to something on the edge of the photo might show up that you didn’t want in it. In a perfect world I would like to see the lighthouse closer to the left side and the cross to the right. This would allow the viewer to see that the lighthouse is an island and add more to your photo. If you just moved a bit to your left you might have seen that….but again I don’t know what is just outside of this frame. Another thing is I wish it had a bit more contrast. I think you have gone as far as you can with the darks but you could have maybe made the whites brighter…make it pop a bit more. The image fits the challenge and I like the DoF…but I could go either way on this making both tack sharp, or making the cross sharp and lighthouse more fuzzy…I can see both working. Nice job and good score.

Image seems to be dull. Underexposed, perhaps?

I really like the perspective.

I like the concept of the two tall lines, needs a little color saturation and sharpening though, or maybe converted to black & white.

Have faith in God, but put your real trust in that damned lighthouse; otherwise you hit a rock and see God too soon; beautiful shot; I love the religious nautical feel. Nice ocean green blue; fog; you get high marks from me.

Nice idea, but I wish the cross in the foreground had been sharper or more in focus.

I absolutely LOVE the composition and the subject matter but your photo is not in focus! Even sharpening in photoshop would help.

Like your picture but I think the Lighthouse is takes away from the cross as both are such strong elements.

I think the focus is a little off on this because it almost seems like the rocks behind the cross are in focus more than anything else. I like the composition though.

Beautiful capture and place. Colors seem a bit flat to me. I like your composition with the cross and the lighthouse. Well done.
