Minimalist Lighthouse, a photo from Illinois, Midwest

Photographer's Note

The Chicago Harbor Lighthouse is an automated active lighthouse, and stands at the south end of the northern breakwater protecting the Chicago Harbor, to the east of Navy Pier and the mouth of the Chicago River.

The light was constructed in 1893 for the World's Columbian Exposition and moved to its present site in 1919. The United States Lighthouse Board prominently displayed "its 'state of the art' wares and engineering achievements." Prominently featured was "the engineering marvel" of Spectacle Reef Light and a 111-foot-tall (34 m) skeletal cast iron lighthouse tower.

The lighthouse was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 19, 1984, and later was designated a Chicago Landmark on April 9, 2003.

The position of the lighthouse is well choosen and it is nice to have nearly the same blue tones of the sky and the water.

Hello Andre,
This is a beautiful composition. The simplicity and the blue of the sky and water are great, so is the placement of the lighthouse on the left. I hope you and your family are doing well. Take care!

um farol curioso esse na beira do lago-mar. muito bonito o efeito visual que vocę conseguiu aqui com os azuis de água e céu quase idęnticos e que fazem o farol se destacar ainda mais nessa compo minimalista. lindo trabalho.
