NS-00082 - Temporary......

PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.

 

This was as close as I was allowed when I got here. To days later it was not even possible to get this close as the barriers were moved where it would be impossible to get any pictures. This will all be gone by the end of May.

 

This was the reason I took this drive down the coast, most people know I like lighthouses and this was a mock one built for the movie being made. It is just a staging covered with imprinted design of stone.

 

Set construction for the feature film The Lighthouse was underway on the Leif Ericson trail at the Cape Forchu lighthouse.

 

The movie is about a Nova Scotia lighthouse keeper in the early 20th century and stars Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson.

 

The site include the shell of a 18.3 meter (60ft) lighthouse built for the film. There will also be a small boat launch for scenes of the lighthouse keeper departing and arriving by dory, a coal shed, a house with a breezeway to the mock lighthouse and two other maintenance sheds.
