Lighthouse



This is the Cape Hatteras Light Station located in Hatteras, NC. It is the tallest Lighthouse in all of North America standing at 298.4 feet. It is also made entirely of brick and is the largest brick lighthouse in the world. I love the monochrome "candy cane" colors of the light station and thought it made an excellent subject. Higher contrast and saturation settings really helped make the image seem "hand drawn".

This is one of my favorite pictures... Like you have perfectly described it - it seems hand drawn. I like how you managed to take the shot with nothing in the picture but the light house and the grass, since there was a lot more going on at the beach. I'm totally making it my wallpaper :)
