Castle Point Lighthouse

Castle Point, South Island, New Zealand

The first flickering rays of sunlight strike Castle Point Lighthouse in North Island New Zealand painting the sandstone gold. I loved the contrast with the still twilight blue of the morning sky.

Great comp! Perfect use of lines to draw you from one corner of the frame to the next. Well done.

Many years ago we drove such a long distant to this magical place and I immediately spot it even I couldn't remember the name of the place so well. Thanks for bringing back the beautiful memory
