As the Sun Sets at Cape Byron
The Cape Byron Lighthouse is on the outskirts of Byron Bay on the northern NSW coast. It was constructed in 1901 and is Australia’s most easterly lighthouse. I headed down for the drive on my recent holiday in South East Queensland and especially enjoyed the light play at sunset to capture a nice series of lighthouse photos. This photo used a one minute exposure to capture the dreamy motion of the clouds as they drifted across the afternoon sky.
