Breakers of Darkness: The Majesty of Lighthouses

Lighthouses. Just the word makes my heart skip a beat.

I'm often asked why I cherish lighthouses so much. I think they are so beautiful and in many ways poetic. They exemplify strength. They face fierce storms and keep the light on. In a way, they are an analogy to how to live life. We all face vicious storms in our lifetime. We have to remember to stand tall against the gale and keep the light burning bright. This too shall pass.

This book encompasses many years of photographs, mostly around New England. I am not done capturing these beauties yet (by far). There are many more beautiful lighthouses to visit, explore and gaze at, in New England where I live, and around the world.

I hope you enjoy this book and consider supporting the restoration of lighthouses. Lighthouses are a part of human history. Sadly, many are falling into disrepair as electronic navigation has now become the standard for traversing the seas. Private citizens and lighthouse organizations around the world are dedicated to preserving them and their stories.
