I like your shot, good subject matter, nice composition, smooth gradations of tone, much better
than mine in that respect, either you have a much better scanner or a much better exposure, on
top of everything else.

I think the originally posted PAW is the best lighthouse shot so far.
It was a bit dark, but it conveyed a certain mood of bad weather brooding.
Even with the half frozen water in the foreground. And that's when a
lighthouse really shines, after all.

Uh. Pun half-intended, I guess.

All this talk about lighthouses and recent interest in panorama shots made
me look into my archives for one particular pano of a lighthouse. I
upsampled it, and printed it out on roll-paper with my Epson 890 to 20x55
cm. Since the original was a cropped 35mm slide, I didn't expect it to turn
out more than half decent, but it came out very nice. Maybe photoshop CS is
better at upsampling than it's predecessor, I don't know... Here's a
web-version, 800 pixels wide:

It's an image I'm very fond of myself, but I know others don't see as much
in it as I do. I may have posted it here earlier, so bear with me if you
have seen it before.

Cheers,
Jostein
