And one more question for you, lighthouse .. if you don't mind. How do you get your focus right this far away when it's so dark? Even if it wasn't this dark, it may have been dark enough to have trouble focusing and getting detail from so far away in low light. I always struggle with focus in low light if I am not close enough to use a torch.
Hope you don't mind, Sky. :-)
The full sun is in this photo and there are sharp objects to focus on, that the camera can grab.
I see no focus problems in this photo.
Another option could be - it doesn't matter if the foreground is out of focus, it will be black anyway, just manually focus 50ft in and turn it to F/11 or F/22 for example, you will be in focus hyperfocally.
