Description

This was taken on a very drizzly, cold autumn day -- I think the black and white conversion adds a feeling of drama and isolation that suits the scene.

You are right about the drama the black and white format creates
Add to that an excellent perspective, focus and depth and it's a very striking photo, Nikki

Nikki, this looks so familiar...I wnet up and down three times looking for my comment. I was so sure I commented on this! Maybe I started to and forgot or maybe BP went down and I got the "ooops" page. I really love this image! I love lighthouses anyway, but I just love the B&W and the foreground of rocks. This is beautiful and probably one of my favorites of yours! At least, it is going in my favs now! #8568217
