I took another trip to the Princes Pier area in Port Melbourne last night. It was blowing a gale and the sea was pretty wild so didn't stay long.
This is one of 2 beacons that used to guide ships in, the other is about 200 yards inland. The ships would keep the 2 inline on the way in, presumably to avoid sand banks as we're in the vast Port Phillip Bay.
Andy, to my eye, the dark has more drama. I prefer it slightly over the light version. Cool that the top of the base of the beacon is perfectly aligned with the horizon. Nicely done!
