Split Rock Lighthouse

I normally don't mess around with the photo after it has been taken. Meaning, I don't use software to make it look better. I don't know if that makes me a purist, stubborn or maybe even ignorant. Quite possibly, it is all three. Either way, I did take this cliche photo of Split Rock Lighthouse last year on a trip with my gal and decided to start screwing around with the color saturation and contrast and all of that crap. This is the result of my experiment. I am not sure what I think. I may continue to toy around with some photos but will still try to keep things "real" with the old SOC (Straight Out of the Camera.) The photo was taken with an EF 28-135 mm lens set at f/9, exposure - 1/250, ISO - 250 and focal length - 135 mm
