 Shot during our New England trip this month.

nshapiro had told me about this spot as a "must-see" location, and I spent a couple hours shooting it with a handful of other folks who had gathered at sunset. Beautiful place! We really lucked out with the way the sun briefly peeked out beneath the clouds for just a few moments.

Could have scored even higher, but a top 20 is good!

You went to New England and he came to Pittsburgh. You got a Top 20 and he got a hard time. Wonder who fared better. Nice job!

Nicely done. It's a treacherous climb down with the equipment, but well worth it.

I thought this might be Neil's - I guess the location is why. Lovely work and congrats on the top 20!

What a place!, and love the color. Clouds could really add another dimension to the sky, not a big fan of the sun burst in this case since it overlaps the rocks, just my opinion, great shot.

Beautiful shot! Great with the sun peeking through and the star effect! You had great clouds too; the light in the sky has great subtle variations and is fantastic.

Beautiful painting like image. I love the perspective with the lighthouse tightly hugging the cliff sides. Great sky and flared setting sun. Lovely processing.
