The stairway up the center of the Point Sur lighthouse
After entering the main door to the Point Sur lighthouse, there is a spiral staircase that leads up to the top where the light and lenses are housed. The old brick walls are beautiful. I just love this image in black and white.
This photo was taken with a Canon EOS 6D, EF24-105mm f/4L IS lens, 1/30 sec at f/13, ISO 3,200 captured on a Lexar 400x SDXC UHS-1 memory card.

Great shot!
Thanks Jim… I can’t believe I held the camera that still while accidentally shooting at 1/30th of a second.
I like all the lines in the spiral…looks like a chambered nautilus, so fitting at the edge of land overlooking the ocean. Beautiful.
I almost get dizzy looking at it, imagining how I’d have to tilt my head. Gorgeous.
Thank you Marsha. I understand the feeling of getting dizzy. Wait until you see the next photo I’ll be posting in a couple of days.
