What a beautiful lighthouse shot Jurgen! I'm going to Maine in a few days and can't wait to take some pics!

One of my favorite lighthouses, and what a great shot you got of it Jurgen. I also like how you waited to trip your camera shutter until the fresnel light came around in the lighting position. Great work Jurgen!
