Peggy's Cove Light

I have a tough act to follow after last week, but I promised more images from the series. This one is of the famous lighthouse at Peggy's Cove. The challenge was twofold: how to come up with a new image of something that has been photographed tens of thousands of times and to do so when the place was crawling with several dozens of tourists.

I decided to use the rocky terrain to advantage and went for a low angle that emphasized the presence of the light, while the low angle also used the rocks to block the site lines to those pesky tourists.

Thanks for any comments.
