Photo Finish Friday -- The End of the World

It's way off in the distance and you have to look through the ladder on the catamaran to see it. But if you look closely you'll see one of the main attractions in Beagle Channel, Ushuaia, Argentina. It's a lighthouse and it's billed as "The Lighthouse at the End of the World."
I have other photos of it. Certainly better ones that are more than a lonely post in the distance. But I loved the dark moodiness of this one. It emphasizes the end of the world without detracting all that much from the lighthouse.

Oh my gosh, you have to click on the photo to get the full effect, but when you do? Fabulous!
Yet another wonderful picture, dfLeah... thanks.

Looks dark and overbearing, but there is a ray of hope shooting through.

Leah J. Utas said...

Yes, there sure is, Tom

There's such wonder to that perspective. I'm glad that Baggie's comment was first. It would be a shame for anyone to miss enlarging this beauty.

Thanks so much, Redbush.

Hilary, thanks. I suppose I should always add a reminder to click to enlarge.
