Built in 1869, the Cana Island Lighthouse in Door County, Wisconsin remains an active navigational beacon, its 3rd order Fresnel lens still casting its light over Lake Michigan. Built on a small island on the north end of Moonlight Bay, the lighthouse is one of most visited 
and photographed, painted and drawn structures in Door County.Hardly a visit to Door County is completed before I spend a morning or sunset on the rocky shore of the island, hoping to catch something special. For whatever reason, this lighthouse presents a challenge and I'm never certain that I will be successful in capturing a compelling image.
Maybe that's what keeps me coming back.
