Canon 5Diii, Canon 24-105 @ 24mm, f4, 20sec, ISO 100, Tripod

Please view in shadowbox

The West Quoddy Head Light in a thick fog.  While staying in Lubec last summer to visit Machias Seal Island, I had to take a moment to see the easternmost spit of land of the contiguous US.  I was lucky to there was thick fog that night... or maybe not... perhaps this was just "normal" weather.  :-)

The slight glow in the dormer windows along with the thick fog gave it a haunted feel while I was there.

EDIT- There is a bit of excess noise in the shadows and pronounced rings as you fade away from the light.  These are not visible in LR and I'm guessing show up in the jpg as the image is compressed.

Striking image Chris --- the fog really makes the shot. Very creative work!

Very graphic and powerful!
A great photograph is absorbed by the eyes and stored in the heart.

I really like the dark shadow rays.
