South Stack Lighthouse

Lovey image , However I find the sky and the buttercups ? competing for prominence , I keep looking up the top then down the bottom , Did you use flash ? on the foreground as they seem overly bright for the conditions
 
Allen - no flash, just upped the exposure a bit in lightroom to highlight the 'foreground interest', but agree that they are a bit overcooked. Was trying to get a certain look (wide angle with close foreground interest). Nearly, but not quite ! Thanks.

This was the first thing that struck me too, and TBH the buttercups compete very strongly with the lighthouse. I'd be inclined to go back and give them just enough lift to see some detail, but no brighter than necessary.
