Thanks, Colette and Ed. Hopefully it will pick up an EP in a second pass through. #11181073

Certainly one for a resubmit, if October results end with nothing further on this. It's wonderful; I love the light on the clouds, and making that bright reflection on one side of the lighthouse glass. #11192911

Very lovely light and I always enjoy and appreciate a lighthouse portrait with plenty of the context that justifies its presence - the waves breaking on the rocks are very impressive. Good luck on your favorite. #11192946

Harriet, I saw this on the forum and I had to come tell you, this is my all time favorite lighthouse! Portland Headlight Lighthouse is one of the most photographed lighthouses and yours is one amazing capture of it! The light being highlighted takes this one to be a winner! You have the best composition and lighting! Sometimes the judges are just plain wrong! Love it! #11193298

Joannie, you made my day. What kind words! I have been going through some of the entries in the different categories and I just do not know what to think. Some wonderful photos have been overlooked. Thanks again for your encouragement. #11193300

Definitely Portland Head (Cape Elizabeth is not far south of it and not nearly as impressive). Love this whole complex and you've got a gorgeous photo of it all! #11194514
