Awesome photos of a great place. In summer mosquitos and snakes can be an issue… but worth it. Don’t know why by the lighthouse produces an amazing starburst… very unique.

For the rookies among you would you please elaborate on your technique (specifically ISO, shutter speed, aperture) for these amazing single exposures? Thanks!
Sure thing, I'll repost the images with exif included. The trick for the lighting was figuring out the timing of the lighthouse beacon. Two flashes followed by a pause, so triggering to only get the second flash was the key to a good balance for me.
All shots on a Gitzo traveler GT2545T with gitzo ball head (I've been through a few different compact setups and this is by far my favorite balance between rigidity, compactness and usable ball head).
The 24mm shot(s) had a hoya night sky filter as well to eliminate the last traces of sodium lights, although it wasn't really necessary I don't think as this spot was awesomely dark.
