The Smoky Cape Lighthouse with its beams in the cloudy evening twilight shining in the light rainfall. This is near South West Rocks on the Mid-North Coast of New South Wales, Australia. Built in 1891, the Lighthouse was staffed until the 1980s when all lighthouses were automated. It was converted from kerosene to electric in 1962 when it was also increased to 1,000,000 candela output. It uses a Chance Brothers 4-metre 9-panel 920m catadioptric lens. This is a single exposure at 0.6 seconds to stop the motion of the rotating beams.
