Oregon Lighthouses v

Posted by Marion (Nanaimo, BC, Canada) on 27 June 2008 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

This is a very far away shot of the Heceta Head Lighthouse. We got there too late in the evening to gain access. This lighthouse, in its natural setting, is one of the most awe-inspiring to be found anywhere in the world, Commissioned in 1894, this lighthouse located north of Florence is still in service as an aid to navigation. The 56-foot tower stands 205 feet above sea level and can be seen as far as 21 miles out to sea.
