OK. I give up, where did you hide the football players this time. Carol, this is fantastic. Looks like an old time oil painting. The effects are magnificent. This is one heck of a fine photo, my dear friend - Allan #404276

Nice black and white with the touch of yellow glow. I really love lighthouse, don't see many down here so I really enjoy these images. Great composition and effects. Nice job! #404475

Great Image Carol! Nice PS Work!! #404581

Darren K. Fisher March 02, 2004

This is great Carol. The effects are awesome and the light being the only color really works well here. It seems to add hope to the image. Hope that makes sense. #404625

Robert Goodman March 02, 2004

I like this,it's a great image Carol!!! #405091

Carol Brill March 02, 2004

Thank you, Robert! This is a much-photographed subject on the West Coast, just about every view of it is picturesque except very close up! #405242

Patricia A. Kuniega March 02, 2004

I agree that the B&W is a unique way to present this. It's quite different without all the blues normally associated with lighthouse scenes. I like the how your effect has simplified everything down to the essence so that the light becomes the focus! #405269

Carol Brill March 02, 2004

Pat, thanks for your very observant remarks...that is just what I was trying to achieve along with a little mood alteration! #405325

Evy Johansen level-classic March 03, 2004

As usually - a wonderful image, Carol! #405441

Carol Brill March 03, 2004

Thank you, Evy, always nice to hear from you! #406077

Nobu Nagase March 03, 2004
