Yes...the lighthouse is leaning. Here is an excerpt from one of the pages of it's history: Our captain informed us that the lighthouse has a very obvious lean to the east. This, he explained, is due to a freighter striking the pier beneath the lighthouse several years ago.
Thanks for the comments, friends.

Jimbob - aka Mr. Lighhouse, the right leaner looks great in this photo. You've used sunlight to perfection here. A good use of rule of thirds for composition. Good work! Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine
Fine shot Jim. Interesting story about the lean as well. Perhaps a certain captain fell asleep at the wheel!

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
Wasn't the captain from the Exxon Vadies (sp) was it? Another great shot I love the use of sunlight as well.

Glad to hear it IS leaning and not just ME! I was worried there for a minute...

A beautiful shot JimBob - I especially like the placement of lighthouse in this shot - not centered as so many people would have done.

I like this very much - reminds me of several lighthouses along Lake Michigan in Wisconsin.

I was wondering why it was crooked. Thanks for explaining. A most beautiful capture of this unique lighthouse Jim! Expertly done!

I wouldn't want to be the lighthouse keeper on this one! But actually the tilt is not so obvious here Jimbob. Very nice shot with that white structure against that blue sky!

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
I hope it is still stable?...
Wonderful scene!..

"Unique" is the word all right, especially with it leaning a bit! Nice to know it's leaning and not you. Nice shot once again, and a different one to keep.

I think I would be a bit unsettled at night hearing the cracking and popping noises the building would be making!

Jimbob, Raj said in his comment above that he wouldn't want to be the lighthouse keeper on this one, but I wouldn't want to have been the captain of the freighter. Ok, there are 'captains' and captains, lol.
Refering to my yesterday's command, hope you'll understand that I'm curious how you succeeded to make this one. Anyhow a very good shot, my friend.
Regards, Cornelius.

Very nice capture and are those seagulls I see all lined up. Neat bit of info on this neat looking lighthouse. One day i would like to see the inside of one. =^..^=sandi♥

I like this closer view. I have never seen one quite like this. It's unusual. Nice angle to this beautiful shot.

I'm used to buildings that lean, Jim. It's the strictly vertical ones that frighten me. Fabulous.
