Point Hicks Lighthouse

Like most lighthouses these days, the old light and lens has been abandoned for a small modern LED fitting - in this case on the balcony handrail.

Very pleasant accommodation (in shot), and single exposure of 30 secs @ f/4 with a Samyang 14 mm f/2.8 lens on a D750. This is the darkest sky I have seen for a long time, and what I believe to be the zodiacal light was clearly visible.
