Wonderful light and tones! The glow on the building beautifully contrasts with the cooler tones of the night. The exposure is just right to keep the details in the shadows as well as the colour in the highlights. The stars are a subtle feature that don't outshine the main subject. A great photo that makes me want to visit and learn more about this place!

A beautiful representation of the night! A field of sleeping sunflowers, waiting for the sun to return. A well composed Milky Way with bright, glowing stars. Really well exposed to capture the colour and detail of the sunflowers as well as the sky. The glow from a distant town on the clouds helps drawn the eye to fields of sunflowers beyond those in the foreground. A wonderful Nightscape! Well done!

Exposure and composition are spot on! A powerful image of the night with a seemingly simple subject matter controlled in an expert way. A hero shot of the lighthouse with well defined beams of light fanning out in all directions. A sea of stars to maybe represent the view of the sea this lighthouse looms over. Great photography, well done!
