Old and not so new.

TOWER OF FORMER LOW LIGHTHOUSE, SPURN POINT and the
current Spurn Point Lighthouse was established in 1895. After it was decommissioned in 1985, the lighthouse lay derelict for a number of years until it was restored in 2016. Guided tours are available through the Spurn Discovery Centre, which the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust runs.

A very nicely lit shot here Gordon and a very interesting composition. At first I imagined it might be that you had cloned or inserted the front lighthouse into the scene for comparison sake but my further research saw that no, there really are the two lighthouses here. I see that the black and white one has had a new coat of paint etc since you took this, as you say in 2016. Well done.

Thanks for sharing with our UK Landscape Photography Group , Herb
