This is a shot from the Split Rock Lighthouse grounds looking south down the shoreline. I thought it was pretty indicative of the North Shore's geography.

Whenever I see a lighthouse the thing that fascinates me the most is the lens that focuses the light. The Fresnel lens made light houses range much greater and also helped pave the way for photography lenses. We also use some of the same techniques in my 3d work to approximate proper reflections and lighting.
