This is nice, very sharp and colorful.
Wonderful photo. It looks like very romantic.
Beautifully composed!
I love this photograph. It's so sharp and (as Lois said) well composed.
My grandmother was born in the croft next to this lighthouse in 1886. The croft was in the pasture on the northwestern side....now cattle are there. Though I live in the US, I often come to this site to see the lighthouse to reconnect me to my roots. My grandmother said her father was the lighthouse keeper. That was his job. He died when she was 6 years old ( 1892). I have been twice to this area and enjoy the majestic view of the sky, the sea and the beacon of light, the lighthouse. What an incredible sight.
