After almost 16 years I made a correction of one of my pictures. In 2006 I followed "The Lighthouse Directory" to Northern Bothia and made a picture of a lightship, northern of Uppsala. Lighthouse Directory called this lightship " Finngrundet",
Now Erich Hartmann made this correction, thanks! This is Fyrskepp № 23 Kopparstenarna !
Everyone who is interested in lightships should visit

Great webside !

Soon I would like to upload images of other authorship. Where should the other authorship be inserted in the mask?

DE-8638999 is not a German lighthouse! 

DE-7091413 and DE-6650068 is Stabenhuk, C1286 !

Menorca is a wonderful place for lighthouse lovers. 7 great lighthouses are accessible easily by car! Now the question for our spanish lighthouse friends ! I have made a picture at a roundabout in Mahon. In the middle is a lighthouse lantern. The tourist information in Mahon could not answer my question about the origin of this lantern. Might it be the lost Mahon lighthouse listed in Lighthouse Dictionary?

Had a short discussion with captainpet about the choice of cameras to make great pictures of our lighthouses. Maybe we can discuss on a broader basis.
I prefer small cameras, low weight, to stuck it in my pants pocket. Now I use a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX 90V. I like this small camera, but the disadvantage is, these compact cameras can not achieve a greater zoom. The Sony has a 30 zoom. More would be better...

Congratulation all users of World of Lighthouses, we celebrate today the National Lighthouse Day ! More informations: https://nationaltoday.com/national-lighthouse-day/ !

I have seen more than 2700 lighthouses around the world, but  I was rarely so impressed as I was from the Lindesnes Lighthouse. Adventure world Lindesnes fyr !
The lighthouse is a protected site of cultural heritage in Norway. It is easy to reach by road, parking provided.
There is a visitor center with multimedia shows, restaurant, gift shop and well preserved historic buildings. Entrance fee is about 8 € ! It is open from May till October. So the lighthouse is  one of most known Norwegian lighthouses!
I was happy to have seen this great lighthouse.

DSC 09044 is  B2930. The ferry has another position in comparison to other pictures!
DSC 09040 is  B2948.

Shortly before our ferry arrival in Kristiansand, Norway I have made a lot of pictures. Now I cannot identify two lights!
The pictures were made after passage of Oksoy lighthouse.
Picture 9039, Senskjer ?, B2948, GPS Data 58.098073, 8.047171
Picture 9044, think, thats not Kinn,  GPS 58.092311, 8.055625

Thanks, Dmitry, I try to contact the marina in Charlottetown!

Long time ago I tried to found out anything about this lighthouse. Is it a false lighthouse , a replica ? Geo position: 46°13'49.0"N 63°07'20.8"W

Also the large list of German lights from Erich Hartmann does not list this light. I think, you have checked already!  

Fantastic! I will upload the lights someday!  Thanks

I have found another picture and this shows 4 lights, you are right!Two lights have a  different appearence, under construction? Hard to find exact Admiralty number!
