Last weekend SWMBO and I headed to Delaware to photograph some lighthouses. This is the 2nd lighthouse we took on the trip.
Construction began in 1885 and a temporary light on a wooden frame was placed near the building site during the process. The foundation of the tower was embedded into the breakwater. The iron structure, which was listed at 56 feet (17 m) tall as of 1914, was completed on October 2, 1885.
camera was the EOS R with the EF 100-400L
