[Leica] Lighthouses

[ricc at mindspring.com (Ric Carter)]

My favorite is easily Haceta Head From the South (http:// 
gallery.leica-users.org/Oregon-Lighthouses/ 
Haceta_Head_from_the_south). I like the drama of the surf pounding  
and the contrast of the buildings against the dark cliffs. This is a  
fine, well proportioned shot.

I like the idea of Haceta Head Lighthouse (http://gallery.leica- 
users.org/Oregon-Lighthouses/Haceta_Head_Lighthouse_1), but think it  
would have been much stronger if you had dropped back and shot it  
with a longer lens. I think a telephoto flattened perspective would  
better show off the lines of the architecture -- something more like  
a plan's drawing.

As with anyone's opinion on photographs, it is only my opinion.

Nice work. thanks for sharing.
