Historic Beacons on the St. Joseph Breakwater

These historic “lighthouses” are on Lake Michigan

Two historic beacons on a breakwater. At the entrance of the St. Joseph River on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan are two lights, the St. Joseph North Pierhead Lighthouse and the St. Joseph North Pier Inner Lighthouse.

These two aids to navigation date back to the early 1900’s to help guide ships safely into the harbor – shared by St. Joseph and Benton Harbor, MI.

The image was presented in an almost “painterly” fashion by Mother Nature. Only a small amount of editing was done in post-processing – just cropping and a bit of contrast adjustment. It is also available in a black and white version that gives this nautical scene a different feel that might work well as wall art in an office.
