Nice shot.

Any idea of where this is? Any closer shots of the lighthouse?

Add another great shot to the collection. Definately different...in a good way.

This lighthouse sits about 25 miles south of San Francisco, and the keeper's quarters are now a youth hostel. I peeked into the common room, and it's quite nice. A gaggle of Girl Scouts was moving in for a stay while I was there...

EAP, Thanks for this shot! Point Montera is not one of the better known lights on the SF Peninsula (like Pidgeon Point in Santa Cruz).

Here is a page with several lighthouse photos. Although I prefer our local contributors shots, this is a pretty nice compilation...

A very nice compilation. Here's my shot of the Point Bonita Lighthouse, which I also visited this past weekend. Same angle as in the compilation! :p It was so windy that they closed the suspension bridge to the light; my friend and I were among the last to go over.

Great shot! Bonita is one of my favorites, mainly due to the bridge. Makes this lighthouse pretty unique.

Thanks.
