Portland Head Lighthouse, I do believe is considered one of the most photogenic. I chose this particular shot, because I felt it was unique from what most have been shown. Hope all have a fun learning experience and I look forward to seeing the visions of others.

You have until Thursday midnight then we'll start voting.
Thanks all, Dave

Which do I like best... my reply would simply be "yes". Few photos lend themselves to excellence in so many variations some of which invoke fear. This shot is page one of a Steven King story. Or.... "Three Skeleton Key"
Sit in a dark room and view the dark photo sip some wine and listen to:

Thanks for joining in R.G. !!! I, too feel the same about a lighthouse. Sometimes I can't get enough of them.

A different direction is something I strive for as well, Frank !!! Its interesting to see variables of the same image, and how an image can be perceived by others.

I wouldn't debate your choosing St3v3M !!! Happy (belated) Easter to you as well.

Minnie, with all of your travels, I'm surprised you don't already have a sunset/sunrise of Portland Head Light. Excellent choice though !!!

Excellent dpullum !!! While fear wasn't one of my choices, I do agree with the theory that this image can invoke variations of the imagination. The introduction of sitting in a dark room, along with the voice of Vincent Price would be enough to bring the hair on the back of my neck to a rising point. So, my reply would be ..... yes, as well !!!

RBorud, I never gave any thought to going in a dreamy direction. Something I will have to keep in mind for a future project. Nice choice !!!
