I’m putting this in the Just for Fun because I was just having some fun messing around with this photo by cropping out the lighthouse and adding a reflections. What do you think?

It's pretty cool looking.

If you rotate it to the left it looks like a dark figure on the path to eternity.......or just a smudge.

Looks pretty cool.

It looks like a beautiful, almost tonalist kind of painting. I think it's just wonderful, wouldn't change a thing!

Thanks! I wish it were not a crop but it is and pretty noisy or I would or print it. Maybe a small one for my desk.

Thanks you’re very kind. I just wanted to make sure it wasn’t taken as a “real” image. I know there’s a lot of controversy about photos as documentation vs digital art. Not trying to fool or mislead anyone. My personal photography style is not always based in reality!

I love the reflection but I miss the lighthouse...I think it deserves to be reflected as well.

I tried that but it didn’t look very good. I may give it another go, especially with our current plans to stick close to home due to c19. I’ll be re-editing shots from years ago. You all may get sick of pics of my backyard and our 2 dogs.

Love the reflections. I was going to suggest to lighten up the land mass, but going on Flickr it looks brighter than the embed version. Looks great on Flickr.
