October 2011. Gulfapalooza continues. We got to the Naval Air Station at Pensacola, Florida with about an hour left before closing time at the lighthouse grounds. The light was perfect. Above, the tower from the west side.
Cupola! Tall lighthouses can be tricky. Get too far away - your view will be obstructed, while staying too close will result in a severe upward angle. Pensacola Lighthouse is very tall.
Clear shot of the cupola, with a bit of the massive Fresnel lens visible. So. Tall.
The beach is awesome, here. You can't just shoot the lighthouse and leave without going down to the water.
The tower in the waning light, shot from the beach.
Tiny bird footprints in rippled sand.
One last look at the tower.
Gulls!
Thanks for stopping by!
