Winter sea, Harbour island (4)
jloup Silver Note Writer [C: 8 W: 0 N: 20] (99)
Winter tide, from Saint Quay Portrieux, in february. At the horizon you can see Harbour Island. The lighthouse on Harbour island was build in 1850 and it's still active. It was a square cylindrical masonry tower rising from the front of a 2-story masonry keeper's house as you can see here. Lantern was removed and nowadays the light is displayed from a short mast atop the watch room. A closer view can be seen on Trek Earth. There is also an East mark that indicates to sailors to use safe water on the east side of the buoy and to leave the buoy on the west. You can recognize the east cardinal from the 3 others cardinals buoys by both the black and yellow colors and by the arrows on its top as explained on this canadian website.

As Brian Snyder (pepe1782) mentionned, I tried to copy his adjusments to another picture from the same series. Thanks a lot Brian for your advice.

changed a few things:
1- I noticed the horizon line wasn't straight, so I rotated the picture one half of a degree to the left.
2- I edited out the island and the lighthouse in the distance, mostly just for fun... but I did think they were a bit distracting.
3- I increased brightness and decreased contrast to try to lighten up the rock at the bottom of the picture on the left.
4- Added a darker frame


That's all... what do you think?
