Description

Seeing the light of the Bodie Island lighthouse shining in the dark is a wonderful beacon. This photograph was taken on a lovely September afternoon with an approaching storm in the background.

Construction on the Bodie Island lighthouse began in 1871, it first exhibited it's light on October 1, 1872. It stands 156 feet (48 m) tall and is located on the Roanoke Sound side of the first island that is part of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore. The lighthouse is just south of Nags Head, a few miles before Oregon Inlet.

The most recent restoration of the lighthouse itself was completed in 2013. Still a functioning navigational aid, the tower is open for public tours.

Tucked away between tall pine trees and freshwater marshland, the Bodie Island Light presents anything but a typical lighthouse setting. Bodie Island Lighthouse is an important part of local history and a favorite spot for visitors. And still every evening its powerful light beams out across the darkening waves, keeping silent watch over the treacherous waters known as the Graveyard of the Atlantic.

I hope you will consider acquiring one of my photographs for your personal enjoyment or as a gift.
