Description
The Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal Pierhead Lighthouse is located in Wisconsin just off the coastline of Lake Michigan and was constructed in 1881. The light guides ships into the entrance of the Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal, which provides a shortcut to Green Bay, avoiding the dangerous Northern Passage around the Door County Peninsula commonly referred to as "Death's Door." This image contrasts the organic lines of the bare tree with the geometric perspective of the catwalk, as well as the dreariness of the fog with the vibrant red of the lighthouse.

I love the composition here as well as the framing and tones. Very nice with the sepia and the pop of red.

Great shot, David! Really like the way you framed the shot with the branch, and that pop of red color. L/F
