Natural mist ? well done anyway. Color gradient (from warm to cold) is especially appealing. Good choice not to have the sun in the middle or at the thirds.

Bug light? I'm confused.

I'm not confused about liking the photograph, the light, the fog, etc. I really like it.

Bug Light is the informal name for this lighthouse.

Yes, natural mist with very little post.The 14-24 is an amazingly sharp lens!

Fantastic colors, spectacular clouds and nice composition

there is a little bit of a bright halo around the lighthouse?

a side comment : as an ex-musician, do you have access to places where the musicians are playing ? that is a subject matter that is challenging to photograph, a bit frustrating as they are not still like a landscape, light is usually difficult, but the results can be quit rewarding

No...I came up here to Maine from NYC where I made a living plying, recording and teaching drums. I decided to totally cut music out of my life as it was too frustrating after devoting my entire life to music. So now I do mainly landscape photography to satisfy my creative juices. At least until my health issues prevent me from doing that as well.

Very nice moody shot! Lovely mist but the front is a little too blue, cold.

I like the shot.  This is Maine, but looking north and/or west?

I thought Bug Light referred to the orange color, in allusion to the yellow-tinted incandescent lightbulbs once sold as 'bug lites'.
