Join Professional Wildlife and Nature Photographer, David Akoubian, for a sunrise at the Historic St. Augustine Lighthouse. David will lead those who desire up to the top for sunrise. As we climb up and down, there are a lot of great images of the stairs and the abstract patterns they create. Once we return to solid ground there are lots of images of the Lighthouse to be made with the early morning light. The surrounding grounds also offer lots of images, and historic information to capture as well. The Lighthouse is beautiful to see, and a great way to start a day!
Gear List: Wide angle lens for images up close, telephoto lens if the photographer desires to capture sunrising on the horizon. A small travel tripod is recommended for images in the Lighthouse and the area around it. A bottle of water is recommended to hydrate after the climb.
