...there seems to be quite a bit of interest in Maine lighthouses and someone asked yesterday if one could get up into the lightroom in one. Well, the answer is YES! Pemaquid tower This first one is looking up the light from the inside with spiral stairs. The window blows out part of the wall and that's not so good, but...Shadows from the Light  Then this one shows the view looking northeast from the top of the light. You can even see a shadow of the light on the ground. Scene from the top: Pemaquid  This one shows the view looking east across the ocean. A bit of the fresnel lense is in the shot too. You can see a whole lens in the fisherman's museum at the lightkeeper's house. This is truly my favorite lighthouse site in Maine! The habba at dusk. And this one is from my 'hometown,' Boothbay Harbor at dusk. Sorry for the diversion from lighthouses, but I couldn't resist. Oh, and this one was taken with my point and shoot, a Panasonic LX1.
