Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Sandy Hook Light and Light-keeper's House, on Sandy Hook, New Jersey, a U.S. National Historic Landmark. Oldest working lighthouse in the United States.

Photo taken on a cold November, 2014 evening, in Ansel Adams' black and white tones.

Sky above the trees is illuminated by lights from Brooklyn, NY. Blinking airplane, seemingly caught in the light of the lighthouse, is landing at JFK airport. A slight blur in the stars above Brooklyn is due to rotation of the Earth during the 8s exposure.

This image was not edited in any way, this is how it came out from my Nikon D810 camera as a jpg file.
