I have always enjoyed
photographing lighthouses because most are uniquely interesting
subjects with their own unique history associated with them.
Photographically however, some present challenges in terms of gaining
access and others from the standpoint of leaving out all the physical
obstructions such as power lines, cell towers or crowds of people. Even
more challenging is creating an image that has not been done a million
times before you and yet remains pleasing to view.
A few years ago, Cape Hatteras lighthouse was moved inland far enough
to save it from the ocean’s erosive properties. While access
remained a non-issue, other obstacles were created as a result of the
move. It took quite awhile to work around them. As I walked the beach
scouting vantage points and envisioning compositions, I was thrilled to
discover this striking piece of driftwood. Weathered by years of wind
and saltwater, its tentacle like roots add great interest to the image
while subtly directing ones eye to the trademark black and white
spiraled Hatteras light in the distance. I traveled there to create an
image of just the lighthouse but returned with something I hope you
feel surpasses it.
