  Here’s my take on a well photographed scene up at Fanad Head, Co Donegal. I’d be interested in any comments, particularly on the processing.

  

  Thanks

  For me its way too bright and the saturation is too high…
  I`d also crop just above the highest cloud and lose that empty blue sky!!

  Looks great to me!
  Maybe looks different on different screens? mine is calibrated.

  I would have to say as a crtique the forground rocks are a bit too bright and catch the eye before going up the path to the lighthouse but very good processing all the same! :)

  B&W is superb! Regarding the first, if you were going for the high sat and brighter style then it works a treat. But if you are working out the best way to edit to maximise your picture to fit with the “standard” ( using that term very loosely) then the second one is far better.
