[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Built in 1847 to aid to ships navigating dangerous reefs off the lower Keys, the Key West Lighthouse now stands sentinel over one of Florida's finest historical sites.

The tower was originally 46 feet high and powered by 15 oil lamps with 15-inch reflectors, but was extended to 86 feet in 1894. Inside visitors now climb 88 iron steps to the observation deck that affords spectacular views.


HAPPY MONDAY !

Hi Julie,
I remember this lighthouse from more than 15 years ago. Very attractive and well framed against the blue sky, the inclusion of foliage adds depth. Happy new year! Danilo

A beautiful shot of a beautiful light. The red berrie's and blue sky are just enough color to balance out the image.
