Technology moves on.
To the extent that they are still in use, lighthouses are now mostly automated, using solar batteries and no human labor. GPS and sophisticated guidance technologies killed them. Yet I find I can never resist checking one out when the opportunity arises, and a drive along the California coast offers many such opportunities.
These were snapped at Pigeon Point on Highway One, on the way from San Francisco to Santa Cruz. All snapped on the Panasonic G1 with the kit lens.
