Description
This one is a mile offshore, viewable from Ecloa State Park, just north of Cannon Beach, Oregon. As you might imagine, the construction of this lighthouse was very difficult. For one thing, there is no place to land a boat. There's a good story here and you can find others via a Google search.
Thanks for stopping by and any comments.

EXCELLENT CAPTURE , COLORS & BEAUTIFUL !!!!!
What a fantastic shot of this lighthouse. It tells me you have a good telephoto lens, and Ken is jealous. I've never seen this lighthouse this clearly.
Fantastic photo.
Beautiful lighthouse...
Wonderful capture! Very well done!
Very nice and thanks for the story.
A wonderful photo. The water is sparkling and beautiful. An amazing place for a lighthouse.
Beautiful capture ! Ana
What a lovely day, calm and peaceful. I can't imagine being alone on this rock for months on end thru some of the storms that I'm sure must hit this spot. It looks like there is not even anywhere to raise a small garden, so one would be completely dependent on the outside world for everything. Thanks for sharing this image and story with us.
A neat picture Dennis. I cannot image waves damaging the lens 130-ft. above the water. That must have been really scary for the light keeper. Sig...
Excellent work!! The zoomed view is fabulous!!
Excellent shot. I could have sworn I'd seen the light on in 1999. Hmmmm. Must find old photos.
I bet that would be an exhilerating place to be on a stormy night. Fabulous composition.
Wow. You took this from Ecola? Awesome. I can't tell you how many times I've been up there, and I don't remember seeing this! I was probably standing there dreaming of Haystack Bread or something. Thanks for the link. Fascinating information! By the way ... did I mention I like the photograph? Nice!!
columbarium??? I had no idea this is what they used the lighthouse for now??? Very interesting link, thanks for adding it! Great shot especially with the ship in the background!!!!!
Interesting lighthouse. Excellent shot. Aloha
marvellous!
It's always amazing how they can come to built on such places and not have it fall into the sea after a couple of good sized storms.
great a good shoot love lighthouses and this on the rock thank you greetings smillinfaces
That is a tough shot to take As I have tried many times since the lighthouse is a mile off shore Makes you use telephoto I would love to walk on that island just once Great capture with the ship in the background...now try to get the whales :)
WOW! No place to land a boat... I might have given up. Object lessons indeed. This is wonderful.
