Taken during sunset at Ocean Isle Beach as the sun was moving behind the evening thunderstorms.
I had the opportunity to stay at a friend's beach house this summer. The view during sunset was absolutely spectacular, with the sun setting across a wide marshy body of water, and an evening thunderstorm following it up.
Old Baldy, located on Bald Head Island, is considered NC's oldest standing lighthouse. It was the second light built on the island, after the first one was washed away by beach erosion. It wil be two centuries old in 2017. Surrounded by a picturesque grove of trees, the lighthouse stands today as a monument to the men and women of the Lifesaving services that preceded the coast guard.
