Moonrise at Wind Point #2

This is a companion photograph to the one that was posted yesterday by Tan Eng Loy on his photoblog. It is of the Wind Point lighthouse in Racine, Wisconsin. The Wind Point light is one of the oldest and tallest on Lake Michigan.

This view is from Lighthouse Road as you approach the grounds from the south. I've been to Wind Point numerous times, and the location never seems to run dry for photographic ideas. The surrounding grounds are beautiful, even in the bleak days of November, when the leaves have nearly all fallen from the trees and winter seems just a cold breath away.
