Day 15- Heceta Head Light

Heceta_Head_Ligh

So, today it was all about post processing. It was cold outside and the light was incredibly flat. And I still have several days of processing to do on the Coast photos. I chose this one, not because it was my favorite of the day but because it needed the most post processing to get a worthy image out of it. The viewpoint where Heceta Head Lighthouse has been photographed about a billion times was closed for construction. From the parking lot below you could barely make out the lighthouse through the trees. I was with a group so I couldn’t climb up the path for a closer view. So I squinted through the trees and took a shot. It took a lot of vibration and saturation to bring out the red roof of the lighthouse so that you can actually tell there is a lighthouse there. But I kind of like the moody mysterious look of this. Not that I would enter it in any contests.
