Diamond Head Lighthouse Sunset

This lighthouse located on the cliff just below the Diamond Head Crater was built in1899 and the original fresnel lens is still in use today. The lighthouse has a back-up battery and is completely automated in case of a power outage. I hate photographing at this location because it is hard to come up with a good composition, mostly terrible weather, and always full of people. Persistence is the key and on a good day one might get to see the condition that he/she is looking for.
