Pt. Cabrillo Lighthouse, daylight version!

Couple weeks ago, had a chance to visit this operating lighthouse, on a weekend that was sunny and warm, rare for Ft. Bragg/Mendocino. Great hike down to the shore with the dogs, very interesting history of this lighthouse, plus the views are stunning and very camera worthy. Did not carry my Bogen/Manfreddo tripod on this trip, which I usually recommend for good quality landscapes. Fortunately the sun allowed for very fast shutter speeds which enable hand holding, even on tight, zoomed in shots.

Lighthouse fans owe it to themselves to visit this on. Just north of the town of Mendocino on Hwy 1.
