I have a strange relationship with lighthouses at night. Sometimes they can add to an image, sometimes they dominate too much, throwing too much light on surrounding land etc, but some lighthouses I keep returning too, and the Akaroa Heads lighthouse is one of these. Like Nugget Point Lighthouse, to get the best shot of it, requires walking off track a little & inevitably sitting too close to sheer cliffs. But on Akaroa Heads you can get back far enough back that the lighthouse itself is obscured. Xmas eve 2022 was such a lovely warm evening that I thought a trip to the heads would be the best place to try out my new 20mm Nikon f/1.8 S z-series lens. Thankfully, unlike the last time I was here there was almost no wind, and the sky was awash with wonderful warm hues from the very last glow of astronomical twilight. All in all, a wonderful night out under the stars lying in the tussocks. Bliss
