SUNKISSED
Wilson Avenue Crib Lighthouse
by Nenad Spasojevic

Are you looking around yourself? While trying to get a completely different composition at that time, I was struggling to get the cityscape in focus because I was shooting from a far and the haze and the atmosphere near the city was making it impossible to nail the focus. I was pretty frustrated because the weather was great and dramatic but I was missing the shots! So to try to save the day I was walking back and forth to see what else I can do. I small crack in the blue sky just showed up and it got wider very fast. This scene unfolded very fast and it lasted for entire 5 min. The light shined upon that structure and at that time I didn't know what that structure in the distance actually is. After a little research I find out that is one of the old crib lighthouses and it dates all the way from 1800's. All until I got home I didn’t realize that this would be my favorite shot from that session. What do you think?
