Challenge: Duotones III (Advanced Editing V)
Camera: Canon EOS-5D
Lens: Canon EF 24-105mm f/4.0L IS
Location: Cape Meares, OR
Date: Nov 5, 2007
Date Uploaded: Nov 5, 2007

This was taken on an early morning expedition to Cape Meares. I like the nostalgic feel of the lighthouse (good for B&W) and the blue cast gives it (I hope) that forlorn, cold feel.

I absolutely love this shot! I am a sucker for lighthouses and you have done a kickass job with the composition, picking the right time for lighting,and the processing.You are a master! I am surprised you didn't ribbon. I give you a ribbon if thats any consolation.

This turned out to be a tough challenge. I really liked this shot. I bet if there was a bird somewhere you would have easily cleared 7.

Great depth in this shot. I like that the details such as the running condensation on the glass is visible.

Cool shot and the tone really enchances the shot. I feel that the composition might have benifited if the top of the lighthouse were not cropped.

This is slammin. Love the angle, the tone, and the composition. Wish that you could have cloned out the stray branches on the left, but still a 9. Great job.

Oh, my...I love it. Great composition, nice colour choice for the duos, and the dodge/burn has enhanced the mood.
