The story behind the image
We spent the night at Struisbaai in South Africa and headed the next morning to the Cape Agulhas Lighthouse to visit the museum in the lighthouse. Fortunately, we could also use the stairs to get to the top platform. While the view from up there does not differ so much from the ground view (i.e., it is a bit boring), we enjoyed the fresh air and elevated position. What’s more, I found this exciting angle to capture the housing of the light.
Nice.
