Hi all.

Another one of Portland Lighthouse from my brief visit to Dorset a couple of weeks ago.

Minutes later it poured down.

10mm @ f20 (Cokin X121S Grad)

Hope you all like.

What a lovely blend of light and rich colour Dennis...the lighthouse and the wave breaking is the contrasting beauty...great balance to your exposure.

Maybe a bit dark for my tastes, but there is no denying the power and drama you have captured here.

See you're getting a second chance. good luck :o)
been meaning to ask this from your previous EC. As I don't know the place... what's that large white cucumber-like thing in the bg on the coast ?

@Andy - Thank you.

@Koen - Trig point. Trig points were a tool to give surveyors a frame of reference for surveying the UK in the days before electronic positioning aids were available (GPS etc).
