Amrum lighthouse

I was playing with old raw files today. This is a cropped enlargement of a shot I took handheld with a 500 mm telezoom lens. It shows the coast of the island of Amrum (Germany). Distance ~13 km. Part of the sky and land is reflected by a Fata Morgana that had formed over the North Sea. The lines of the lighthouse are strongly curved due to air flicker.
Overall, the photo gives the impression of a painting. Somehow very cool.
