		| | I agree with ToolCool, but I don't agree with limiting yourself to lighthouses. 
 I would add that a soft ray of light across the paper and tighter crop would give the scene more 'pop' and maybe highlight the words more.

		| | Thanks for the comments guys.  I'm just lookin at what the stats in my portfolio say. Out of 13 challenges, the top 6 scores are outsidenatural light shots....5 of em lighthouse related.  The 4 inside shots I have entered as challenges landed in 7, 10, 12 & 13th places.  Only 1 made it above a 5.
 Maybe "set up shots" with indoor lighting just aren't my thing...lol
 Also, lighthouses is what I "do".  Sticking to them & improving them more isn't such a bad thing.
 I'll probly keep dabblin just cuz it irks me that I stink at it ;)
