Being a Volunteer Lighthouse Host at Heceta Head allowed me to get a little closer to the lens than the day-by-day tourist. Enjoy, Carl

1) Sunset at Heceta Head. I was lucky to time the photo just as the beam hit my camera lens to create a star burst.

2) When the light in the focal point burns out the spare is automatically moved into position and turned on.

3) A view from inside the Fresnel Lens at Heceta Head - Over 2 tons of lead glass 9 feet tall and 6 feet wide.

Very nice take on Haceta Head. The dusk scene, colors & the beacon work well.
I have only visited there during the day....
Had a similar experience at Mendocino light house with a visit to the lamp room

Thanks for posting

Great set, cool to see the light. I've been visiting since I was a kid 30+ years ago. I knew it as Devil's Elbow back then.

The beam was either great timing, or luck. Anyway, it looks good.

What focal length did you use for the first picture? Was this taken from the lookout off of the highway south of the lighthouse?
