Faros

A gentlemen in Michigan is working on building a photographic essay on the lights of the world. It's a long way from comprehensive at this point. Being based in Michigan, as you might expect the best collection is around the Great Lakes of America. It has been expanding around the United States and now has spread to a coverage of portions of Europe. For a look at what Charles Bash has built to date, go to www.lighthousesRus.org. He welcomes all additions, corrections and comments. There are many such compendiums, the unique part of this site is that it also provides a map (using Google technology) of [almost] every light. Insider knowledge of where these lights really are is greatly appreciated.

Charles Bash está facendo unha colección de imaxes de faros do mundo. Desde Michigan, escomenzou o seu percorrido polos Grandes Lagos. Na súa páxina web encontraredes moitas fotografías de Estados Unidos e algunhas de Europa.
O Ateneo Fotográfico xa publicou varias entradas sobre faros galegos: Cabo Vilán, Cíes e Cabo Silleiro. Charles pediume imaxes deste último.

Na primeira das súas fotografías, podemos ver o faro privado de Saginaw Rear Range, pertencente a Asociación de Faros dos Grandes Lagos; na segunda, a casa e faro de Block Island, que se vai convertir nun museo.
