(11) Hornby

I'll never forget taking the picture of this lighthouse. It was on the Manly Ferry which you board from Circular Quay in Sydney. On the way to Manly, at about this point you hit the swell of the sea and there is strong movement on the ferry. I did however manage to capture the moment and take this beautiful lighthouse, like no other one that I've ever seen.

The red and white vertical strips making a change form the same pattern but usually in the horizontal design.


Hornby was built at the entrance of the world's greatest natural harbours in 1858, I took this picture on 9th Jan 2007.

This was to be the first of three lighthouses that I would see in this amazing country.
