Lovely dramatic image of a lighthouse during a storm. Well done on capturing such an impressive image in such challenging conditions also. Good choice to convert the image to black and white also, helps to convey a more dramatic atmosphere

This contest is for your photos of lighthouses. The lighthouse can be in any setting such as on land or in water. The lighthouse should be the main focus of your photo. I hope you enjoy the contest.

Lovely colours in this image. Good work!

I appreciate the symbolism in this image with both the cross and the lighthouse. The cross as a memorial to those who have lost their lives at sea and the lighthouse is their to try and prevent more people from losing their lives at sea by guiding them to safety. Really nice that you have captured both in the same image.

I really like the classic seaside town scene that you have captured in this image along with the lighthouse taking centre stage. Lovely range of colours as well with the buildings. An image that is very pleasing to the eye. Good choice of location as well with Southwold being a good historic town

I really like the stormy atmosphere in this image that you have captured. A vital aspect of a lighthouse is to guide ships through storms and I feel that this is captured in this image with the impending storm. Well done!

Really nice for me to see a lighthouse I know so well in action. In all my life in Eastbourne I have yet to see it lit up. Lovely colours as well. Well done!

The fact that you have captured this image in monotone really helps convey a stormy atmosphere across. Lovely that you chose to capture this image in the presence of a storm as a lighthouse’s role is primarily to guide ships through storms. Nice photo!

I like the calmness that you have captured in this image along with the lighthouse being in action as well. Lovely colours also
