o man... too too much in the sky. The lighthouse looks good, but back down on the sky!

I really like the subject matter. A little heavy on the HDR effect for my tastes.

I really don't like extreme HDR, but I must say that it does work well for this challenge. Dreams usually are fairly hyper-realistic. I half wish you had used a wide angle with some distortion on the light house. Bear?

Way overprocessed for my tastes. HDR should be subtle and a means of improving the photo, not making it into a mess.

I really like the lighthouse, the sky looks great IF it wasn't overprocessed. Horizon is also tilted. Sorry to be so harsh but those are the feelings I get from this photo.

This is crazy good - you have packed so much into the image that cause the connected/unconnected feelings in my of dreaming. I love the presentation.

Good composition and use of lines/shadows. The topaz effect is a bit heavy for my taste.
