This is located near the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa. "The original Cape Point Lighthouse was built on Cape Maclean on the Cape of Good Hope Penninsula in 1860. It was built on the highest point in the area and unfortunately it was built too high as it was often shrouded by low clouds and therefore not useful as an aid to navigation. It was replaced in 1919 by a new light built a short distance away but lower to the water. The old light is now a popular tourist stop for those visiting the Cape." Thanks in advance for any comments. ENJOY!

Very nice, Jen. Bad place to have a lighthouse that doesn't do the job efficiently. Supposedly very treacherous waters there.

I love the angle of this shot. That lighthouse is a little stubby one, but I guess being high on those rocks, it doesn't need to be tall. Gorgeous shot, Jen.

Thanks for taking me there, Jen. The sky is so blue and the details in the ground cover so good it makes the light house stand out nicely.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Jen - Wonderfully composed, exceptional clarity, with great contrast between land and sky to showcase the light. Thad
