Well what a suprise Carol, I'm 1stt in for a change. I like this image very sharp and detailed. Does it serve a purpose or jus a display model? Bill J. #514487Carol Teal September 01, 2006
Hi Bill, thanks for the nice comment! I have posted this before, but this time for the contest, I did the buzz differently. Someone told me the way they do it, so I tried that way and I am more pleased with the results than my way! No, this lighthouse does not serve any purpose and is really not so large, maybe a little bigger than a normal house. It is just to make the ride feel more authentic. They have a beautiful church I tried to shoot from the boat, but I was on the wrong side so I wasn't very successful. This lighthouse can be seen before you get on the boat, so it makes it easier to shoot. #3255451William Johnson September 02, 2006
Thank you for the information Carol. As usual with you, I found it very interesting. Bill J. #3258782

Thank you so much Dennis for your kind comment. I have been wanting to photograph a lighthouse at sunset since moving to FL, and wouldn't you know, there are none close to me! So I had to settle for this fake one for now, and w/o the sunset! #3259830Carol Sawyer September 04, 2006

Thank you so much Carol and Wendy! I collect lighthouses and will be glad when I can get to the coast where I can photograph a real one; however, this one looks quite realistic, but just a little small. :) #3269418Datha Y. Thompson September 05, 2006

Thank you Nemil so much for your kind comment! Do you have as many photos taken at Universal as I do? I think I have taken a photo of almost everything there! :D #3301874Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
