Show me the way!!

Finally I got the muhurta for my next photoshoot and this time I wasnt alone. Joy and Suyash were with me. We wanted to shoot some lighthouse at night. Joy finalized on pigeon point lighthouse.

We reached there around 5 pm. The weather was just perfect. We were happy about it, but we were so wrong. Soon it turned into bone chilling winter weather. My hands were freezing. I couldnt operate the tripod because of that and finally broke it :( And it was not even night yet! I was worried about the night shoot. Joy offered to share his tripod :)

Finally it was dark and we were waiting for the lighthouse to show us the way (basically to light up). waiting... waiting.... waiting.... and we found out that there wont be any light :( We learnt that they only turned on the lights on special occassions.

Here are some of the snaps from our photoshoot. I wish there was light to show me the way :(

Since both the photographs are taken from the same direction, I guess you are moving away from it or going wide angle!!? The colors...as if go from one side of rainbow to the other, almost covering the spectrum...beautiful!
I read somewhere that the oldest light house in the world is believed to be in Antalya on Patara Beach, Turkey. Since the light house is dark, may be you can throw some light on the subject.
