I posted this a few weeks ago, I finally got around to fixing it. The main problem was that it was leaning to the left a bit--so I fixed my "Leaning Tower of Pisa."

Very nice sunrise shot! I really like the pastel colors in the sky. Perhaps a slight bump in contrast in the sky to bring out those clouds a little? Might add some more drama to the image. :toast:

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the comments. Phillip, that thought did cross my mind but I was afraid to overdo it--but its still in the back of my mind!

Love the light and glow of pink framing the lighthouse.
