Another view of the lighthouse

With the change of the Montague Island lighthouse to automatic operation (and a halogen lamp), it also was changed to solar power (panels at left). The light has a range of 20 nautical miles (about 40km) and the 21 metre tower is 80 metres above sea level. More details with the other images (also shown in the PiPs). View large.

A perfect lighthouse picture! The angle and composition couldn't be better, nor the dof to show this beautiful building off to its best. I love lighthouses so I was delighted by seeing this. The insets are great too, but I have to admit confusion about the rock image...how does it relate to the lighthouse? In any event, fascinating to learn that it's now solar powered. That's so cool!

Many thanks for your visit and kind comments, Janet. Yes, lighthouses have almost universal appeal and there are so many variations to add interest. The answer to your question is to be found here: www.ipernity.com/doc/tiabunna/47944522 . Have a great weekend.
