There are two times, 8:30pm and 9:30pm. You have to get tickets 3 days early. Hope you get to do it...it was magical!

Your shots looking down the spiral staircase in the lighthouse are excellent. We always try to visit lighthouses in our travels, too. Maybe it's the beautiful remote locations that make them so alluring...and the idea that the life of a lighthouse keeper would be romantic, although the reality is that it was terribly hard for most of them. It's fun reading about your explorations of an area we've yet to visit. On the list!

You can do this if you try. Of course having said that, I always love your bird and closeup photos which I am not so good at. And then there's post processing to pull out shadows and drop highlights. That shot looking down the stairs is awesome. Is hard to believe those stairs are free standing.
