Aquinnah Light - a photo on Flickriver

Aquinnah Light

            Aquinnah Cliffs and the lighthouse on Martha's Vineyard.  Had lots of fog when we arrived, so was challenging to get a clear shot.

The lighthouse is called Aquinnah Light, formerly known as Gay Head Light and was originally built in 1799. The lantern was lowered 14 feet in the early 19th century to get the light under the fog and again by 3 feet during a major rebuilding in 1838.  By the 1850s the tower was in disrepair and close to the edge of the cliff, so the current tower was started in 1854 and lit in 1856.
