Of course it poured with rain...

on the day that I went to Bryon Bay... I was lucky enough to have a 20 minute window of no rain (but overcast skies) while I was at the lighthouse though..

Glad for your photos that it was overcast !!!

#1 and #3 work well and mostly because of the lovely texture in the sky.
#1 might work better with a little aspect adjustment but is a perfect subject in b&w.

Same thing happened to me when I went there a few years ago. But it's not all doom and gloom as I think the lighthouse looks great with all that dramatic cloud behind it.

very good shots there! The second image has this interesting calming effect for some reason.

Really cool shot of the 1st image. However depending on the time you had processing the image, I would remove the 'halo' around the building and try to make it seamless. I think it will add more to the image.

First one is excellently dramatic. Guess what, it's raining in Coffs, it's always raining in Coffs!

#1 for me. Great moody effect. Waiting for some dramatic music to be playing in the background.

love the effect you got with #1

Hi Sue,

I really like #1 and #3.
Dramatic sky, great contrast.
I'd be interested to know what PP you used to get this result.
I think in #1, you've done some dodging/burning to get the effect.
And in #3 it looks like you've used some tone mapping software.
How ever you did it, it worked well.

#2 is nice as well. Very peacful in comparison to the others.
Not so sure about #4. I think it's a bit over sharpened: crunchy hair and halos around the 2 darker shirts.

Cheers
John
