Montauk Point Light, I have been to this location once previously with a group of friends but it was late night and we just drove around and went back. I wanted to see the location in daylight and when another plan to visit DC fell apart myself and old college buddy decided to head to Montauk and make a day of it.

I have to say the place is beautiful I can understand now why people spend millions in acquiring houses here. The waves were surprisingly nice and the day I went here the area was being covered in waves and waves of fog from the Atlantic. We spent most of the afternoon exploring the different trails across the Lighthouse and Finding some nice view points.

This shot was taken from the barrier boulders close to the beach which I guess were there to prevent erosion. I got completely and properly drenched while taking this shot, I used a polarizing filter to get the wide-angle and used a Nikkor 12-24mm for this capture.
