The 1/4 mile walk in the sand to the inlet is a nice hike, but the inlet is quiet, except for the occasional watercraft passing by. Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse – Canon 5DM2
Hillsboro Inlet
Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse
The lighthouse began it’s history 1890 when a bill was introduced in Congress to build a lighthouse at Hillsboro Inlet. In 1906 the land was cleared and the lighthouse construction began. In 1907 the Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse was first illuminated with an incandescent Oil Vapor Lamp (like a “Coleman Mantle Lamp”) in a revolving Second Order Fresnel Lens.
Morning Light & The Lighthouse
The morning light was graceful at the Hillsboro light house. The heavy cloud line in the distance blocked the sun allowing me more time to digitally paint some photos with the early morning light.
