While spending a nice time with my sisters during their visit, among some of the things I have taken them are the many lighthouses that are part not only of the landscape but also of the rich maritime history of Lake Michigan.

I always have had a liking for "pharos" (lighthouses) and as we visited many towns and cities of the lake's coast, I took advantage too to make photographs that I hope to use for some paintings I would like to make. Today I share some here which I hope you like them.
