Summary

Description
English: This is a photograph of Low Point Lighthouse, located in New Victoria, Nova Scotia, Canada. Low Point Lighthouse is at the North East entrance of Sydney Harbour and marks the approaches to the harbour.

My photos are FREE for anyone to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks - NONE OF MY PICTURES ARE HDR.

I left the lighthouse, not getting the great colours I had hoped for but as I was leaving I went in a different direction than normal and managed to get this shot which I liked.


-------------------------------

The first lighthouse was an octagonal wood tower built in 1832, 21 meters (69ft) high. It had a round iron lantern and a 3rd order double bullseye lens manufactured in France. This lighthouse was replaced in 1936 by the current concrete tower, but the original lantern and lens were retained. It has the only remaining circular lantern in Nova Scotia.
