Outer Banks Lighthouses

For this weeks Scenic Sunday I have some shots of the Lighthouses we visited during our trip to the Outer Banks.

We visited three different lighthouses, they were Bodie Island which was under renovation, Cape Hatteras and last was the Currituck.  I love seeing all the different lighthouses and I can add three my to more collection.

I love lighthouses and I really enjoyed our trip to the Outer Banks. If we go again I would like to go in the spring time to see the different birds.

I hope you enjoyed my Scenic Sunday shot and

  12. Hi Eileen,

    Looks like a fun trip.
    I enjoy lighthouses as well.
    Love all the photos, and the collage.
    Pointing the camera up into the skies from the lighthouse base is a great image.

  16. Lovely lighthouse journey Eileen. I am sad we didn't see Currituck, not sure how we managed to miss it!

    I too would love to go in the Spring. We were there in early August.
