Stunning in Wisconsin
How would you describe this photo of the 1918 Manitowoc Breakwater Lighthouse in Manitowoc, Wisconsin? Stunning, Spectacular, Amazing, Exquisite, Outstanding, Fantastic, Incredible, Impressive, Imposing, or, perhaps, just plain Beautiful. In 2011, the lighthouse became privately owned and has since been restored. The 4th order Fresnel lens that was once in use in the lantern is now on display at the Manitowoc Museum.
