The Story Behind the Photo


During my trip to the west coast of Michigan, I located this lighthouse and immediately fell in love with it. This is the Big Bay Lighthouse. It is in the process of becoming a museum. Lighthouses are an endangered species, as GPS on ships have virtually eliminated them. I was able to photograph this point of view, by walking out on another section, of slippery rock. The wind made my tripod setup very difficult. I waited around for about an hour before the wind subsided and I was able to click the shutter. The moment came just before the storm arrived, at 2:53 p.m. Canon 5D ...16mm...1/100 at F9 ISO 100..As always, Happy Shooting !
