Not one of Florida's nicest lighthouses, but it does have some charm. One day while driving into the island to get to Ding, I noted that the view of this lighthouse from the Causeway was the best view for a sunrise shot, but you need a medium telephoto at a minimum to take the shot. It was really windy and I managed to get at least one sharp image.

Nice shot Michael.

I know what you mean about angle. I haven't shot this one as the closeup locations just don't do it. We usually are there with heavy traffic, so I don't think this location will work unless we stay there sometime and explore the area.

It is a great lighthouse for this type shots and can get a different perspective/lens Have used a 500 for the image !! Also from the same spot you can do birds with flash with that gorgeous bg !!!
