Description
Make a bold statement with this dramatic black and white fine art photograph. Lighthouse lovers will appreciate the detail in this strong composition which includes a dramatic sky and the bridge behind this iconic structure lit up at night. Newport Harbor Lighthouse known locally as the Goat Island Light House with the Claiborne Pell Newport Bridge in the background, Newport, Rhode Island, USA in black and white. The octagonal granite lighthouse, painted white with a green beacon, was activated in 1842, replacing an earlier light. The lighthouse was automated in 1963, renovated in 1986, and in 2005 the current fixed green light was added. It is still an active aid to navigation.
Coordinates: 41 29 36 N 71 19 37 W
My portfolio also includes a color version of this image with the unusual green lamp and hints of color in the clouds and along the horizon, taken right after the blue hour.
