Whitby's West Pier

Trinity House, a charity dedicated to the safeguarding of seafarers, built the Whitby Lighthouse in 1858. It was designed by an engineer named James Walker as a pair of towers with fixed lights, which became automated in 1992 and now stands as a singular tower.
The lighthouse stands at 13meteres tall with a range light of 18NM.

Good to see a monochrome from you Gordon. This has a look of a very slow 20 second+ photo but your shown shutter speed of 1/1250 belies that. Of course a place I know well too. Great job. Well done.
