EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures the mesmerizing beauty of the Fremantle lighthouse at sunset in Western Australia. Standing tall and proud, the South Mole Lighthouse stands as a symbol of maritime history and serves as a guiding light for ships entering Fremantle Harbour. Manufactured in England to a design by C. Y. O'Connor, this cast iron tower was installed in 1903 and has since become an iconic landmark. With its impressive height of 15 meters and a range of 18 kilometers, it ensures safe navigation for vessels along the coast. The photograph showcases the lighthouse against a stunning backdrop of vibrant hues painted across the sky during sunset. The warm golden tones blend seamlessly with shades of orange and pink, creating an ethereal atmosphere that is both serene and captivating. Originally lit on July 20th, 1903 with a white occulating light, it soon became apparent that its power was too intense. As a result, the light was changed to a fixed green glow which now radiates from this historic structure every night. Marco Bottigelli's skillful composition perfectly captures not only the architectural grandeur but also highlights nature's artistic display at dusk. This print is more than just an image; it evokes feelings of tranquility, nostalgia, and awe-inspiring wonderment for all who gaze upon it.
