Point Lonsdale Lighthouse


This next amazing photo I'm sharing with you, is one I took in Point Lonsdale, Victoria. The lighthouse is still manned 24 hours a day. The entrance to Port Philip Bay, or The Rip as it is known, is one of the most notoriously dangerous in the world.

It was built in 1852, but was rebuilt quite often up until 1902, after which it has remained unchanged.

I took this photo on a very windy, cloudy day and I'm glad it has turned out well.

  13. Marvelous photo, lovely job, light house pictures can be very popular if framed right. Maybe you should set up a site for selling your work?
