MYSTERY PHOTO: Another lighthouse begs to be identified

Lighthouses around the world keep sending out signals and beams of light to ensure that ships are aware of treacherous ground. Can you recognize this lighthouse, and tell us where it is?  Send your idea to ebrack2@gmail.com, and also tell us where you live.

The previous mystery photo was early on identified by Georgia Graf of Palmyra, Va., who wrote: This is the India Gate (formerly known as All India War Memorial), near the Rajpath (officially called Kartavya path) on the eastern edge of the ‘ceremonial axis’ of New Delhi. It stands as a memorial to 74,187 soldiers of the Indian Army who died between 1914 and 1921 in the World War I, in France, Flanders, Mesopotamia, Persia, East Africa, Gallipoli and elsewhere in the Near and the Far East, and the Third Anglo-Afghan War. A total of 13,300 servicemen’s names, including some soldiers and officers from the United Kingdom, are inscribed on the gate. It was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens. The gate evokes the architectural style of the ancient Roman triumphal arches such as the Arch of Constantine in Rome, and later memorial arches; it is often compared to the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, and the Gateway of India in Mumbai.The photograph came from Paige Havens of Hoschton.

Also recognizing the photograph were Jay Altman, Columbia, S.C.; Allen Peel of San Antonio, Texas, and Stewart Ogilvie of Rehobeth, Ala.
