The contrast on this photo is great - the dark stones are nicely set off by the clouds and the surf. Nice photo.

Cool! One of your best shots ever. Seeing it here makes me think that you're either about to ribbon in the Free Study, or that you're a bonehead. ;-P

The impression of a windy day is quite evident in your photo. Well done in that regard. The combination of seagulls in the wind and the waves coming in make a strong connection to the challenge. Technically, you're a bit blown out in the highlights, some flare is making the shoreline hazy in the distance (UV/Polarizer may have helped some along with a lens hood, even a hat). The biggest thing that is going to zap you on this is the slanted horizon. That just drives many photographers on this site crazy! :D Unfortunately it's slanted enough that it's evident to even the casual viewer. All of the above is JMO of course. Wish you luck in the challenge.

IMO, I think you need to clone the sunspot out of the top center of the photo, I think it is a better representation of the shorline in general, seeing you do not have a detailed view of the lighthouse. But I like the sharpness of the overall photo.

Oh yeah! The green/brown combination is unusual - I like it. Nicely done.
