Excellent shots, thanks for sharing.
Very nice subject matter. I would love to see the same shot with the sun shining off the rocks and light house from the other direction. Looks like this is either a morning or evening shot since the sun angle appears to be low on the horizon. If the light were 180 degrees the other side then the light house and rocks might be more prominent. Just a thought, but overall I love this photo.
The differences between them are pretty subtle. I think this is interesting and very well done. All elements of the composition look great. Good lighting, color, exposure and focus. I can't think of a single thing that should be different. Perhaps you could bring out more detail in the clouds.

Dave, you make it hard for me to find a difference. It appears to be the same photo with maybe the slightest difference in post processing of contrast and brightness. Or else three fast successive shots (I can't detect any cloud movement whatsoever) with minute change of shutter speed and/or aperture. Depending on direction of the light there might be some benefit in polarizing to let us see deeper in the water. Even that might detract from the light house. But in all cases, a grand scene done well. Congrats.

I like it. I'm a "rule of thirds" man and I don't see it on UHH as often as I thought I would. I think you've got it here. Pity about the modern/industrial building, and it's aerial on the left edge. Some clever PP could eliminate that. I like the light and dark shadows on the rocks, maybe a different time of day would have some highlights on the lighthouse picked out but I'm sure you didn't want to spend a whole day waiting on the spot for that. I feel this is one of my weaknesses, missing what they call the golden hour. Overall a photo to be proud of. Andrew.
Lighthouses are one of my favorite subjects. Nice job.

All are good but #1 does it for me.
Thank you for your comments -- I appreciate all of them. You provide me with part of the information I need to overcome my photography learning curve.

I prefer the exposure of the second photograph. This is a wonderful image. :thumbup:
I'll put my vote in for #3. It seems a touch "warmer" than the others.
I'm still not sure about the inclusion of the mossy foreground. It adds perspective to the shot, but I'm not sure it adds anything else.
Beautiful composition and lighting. #3 is the one that speaks to me the best. A perfect balance. Thanks for posting!
I like the composition in general and the reflection of the clouds in the water. I would crop out the building with the barrels on the far left.
Very nice. Since you asked, I would crop a bunch off the bottom.

I realize I'm a little late on this reply, but I like the brightness and contrast best in #1. Very nice photo!!
