Below are some of the lighthouses I photographed in 2001 & 2002 with my old Canon G1 digital. They are straight out of the camera with no post-processing as I didn't have Photoshop at that time.

Bodie Island lighthouse at dusk June 13, 2001. It started it's nightly work about 5 minutes ago. New Cape Henry on the left and Old Cape Henry on the right taken June 8, 2001. I love the touch of red in the foreground, truthfully didn't even notice it in the shot until I got home. Currituck Beach, aka Corolla lighthouse on June 11, 2001. This is a difficult light to photograph.
The boathouse at the Whalehead Club in Corolla, NC in the foreground of the lighthouse. June 11, 2001 Bodie Island from the road, the only way you can really get this light from the east side. June 10, 2001 The old keepers quarters at Corolla from the top of the tower. June 11, 2001
Cape Hatteras on June 10, 2001. I climbed to the top on the 10th, first non-employee in the tower when they opened it. The next day they closed it, ultimately for the year, when a small piece fell from the stair structure. :o( Ocracoke lighthouse on June 10, 2001. Another difficult light to photograph. This one only offers one direction to photograph it from without going on private property, DON'T! It might be possible from the marina which I'm planning to try next summer. The New Cape Henry tower as seen from the lantern room atop the Old Cape Henry tower. A 90' tower well worth the climb, and a fun last few feet to the lantern room itself, you'll see if you climb it.
The Old Cape Henry light. Shot June 8, 2001 coming up the steps from the gift shop.




Ocracoke light from the marina side, just before we got on the ferry to go see Cape Lookout. Cape Lookout June 11, 2002 Sunset over Ocracoke on the way home from Lookout the evening of June 11th.
Absecon Lighthouse Atlantic City NJ February 2, 2002 East Point Lighthouse Heislerville NJ February 2, 2002 Hereford Inlet Lighthouse North Wildwood NJ February 2, 2002
Cape Lookout from behind one of the dunes in the middle of this little island. I thought those little pink flowers really looked cool in the foreground. Piney Point Lighthouse in southeastern Maryland. Shot standing inside a wicker gazebo in March 2002. Assateague Lighthouse in VA. It was Saturday June 15, 2002. We were on our way home from a week on the Outer Banks. We saw deer out in the water, but none of the ponies.
