Very nice Eva! There is a lonely mood to this image that I really like. I'm sure for the keeper of the light it was lonely.

Hi Eva

Another fine image which seems to be cropped near to 6x7 format. Are you starting to prefer this shape or is it just a few coincidences?

Thanks Nick and Ian. With regards to the 6x7 format Ian, I took a lot of film this trip so I guess I am trying to visualize what those images might look like since it will be around 2 weeks before I see those results (if that makes any sense). In general, I am finding I prefer 4x5 and 6x7 (more and more) over the 2x3 digital / 35mm format.

I love the sunburst and the composition though I think you could crop some off the top
