White Lighthouse Against A Deep Blue Cloudless Sky Royalty-Free Stock Photo

Designed to mark dangerous coastlines, safe entries to harbors and to assist in navigation, the number of operational lighthouses has declined due to the cost to maintain them vs. the ease of use of electronic navigational systems. Thanks to GPS, a ships captain no longer needs to rely on a stone structure emitting light from a system of lamps or lenses. For this photographer though, they sure are pretty to look at.Image is of the light house on Pemaquid Point in Pemiquid Maine. I photographed just the top of the lighthouse making the image generic and useable for different applications.
