Description
...employing a highkey filter on the Tillamook Rock Lighthouse.
...I've mentioned this lonely lighthouse in several past postings but this image is meant to give you a sensing for what it must have felt like for a keeper to approach this station for a 42 day stay in the late 1800s and early 1900s.

Yeah, that would be a lonely and desolate 42 days stuck out there on that rock. I'd really be jonesing for a cheeseburger after a week or so! Great photo - really brings out the isolation.

Oooh, this is rich...this is fantastic. I could easily spend a 42 day stay there, with plenty of food, reams of white paper, and a typewriter! Okay, in this day and age: plenty of food, electricity, and a wi-fi connection. I find it incredible that I don't sense any kind of loneliness at all here: being a city dweller, I probably should but all I can imagine is writing the great multi-grenre, crazy novel there! And I love the high key effect of this work, and the sepia toning. How superb! What a structure and all around vista. This is a marvel!

Lighthouses are such wonderful subjects for all sorts of reasons.
