Not everyone is ever going to always agree. The inclusion of the words is not just deliberate, it's basically the point of the photo. I see this as a photo of the gate with the wording in, that also has the lighthouse behind it. As a visual image it mimics the huge place name installations you sometimes get at tourist attractions these days. I found that interesting and worth recording, but I accept others finding it less appealing.
I thought that may have been your intention because you've taken care to place the wording against the sky, making it very obvious. Some we win and some we lose; that's photography.
