Orient Point Lighthouse - 12792

New York

7 August 2006 Posting...On August 5th, I shot about 500 shots of lighthouses while on a boat cruise of the lighthouses of Eastern Long Island Sound sponsered by the Mystic Seaport... I want to really spend some time going through these shots and so I've decided unless something presents itself as an aspiring PAD for the day I'm going to spend more time figuring out what I like/dislike about the shots I took on the cruise - figure it will be more productive than just shooting a pad to get a current shot.

The only thing really done to this shot was removing the ickies introduced from swapping between my 100-400 and 24-70... Really liked the sailboat in the background on this...

Looks like parts of a lighthouse and parts of an old ship. The salt water must be hard on the metal over the years.

I can hear the seagulls and the water lapping on the rocks!
