Nice debut!

I have been working on a series of light houses from photos I took in October during my trip to the Outer Banks, NC. I am right now working on the Hatteras lighthouse under the light of a full moon in a sky of broken clouds . . . kind of spooky and gothic! I had to try and try and try until I discovered it takes 6 whole seconds to expose the image after sundown! It may take ages to figure out how to portray the overwhelming sense of security that lighthouse brought me, standing in the dark at its base, looking up at the spiral of black and white leading up to the beam! It was so peaceful!
