Skies over Queenscliff on the Bellarine Peninsula (on the opposite side of Port Phillip Bay from my Mornington Peninsula)
The black lighthouse is the only one of its colour in Australia and it is said that it's one of only three in the world.
The notorious The Rip, just beyond the headland, opens into Bass Strait.
A guarded headland
Watching journeys through The Rip
Like a caring guide

This is a lovely seascape.
lovely seascape, fit for a story to blend with your wonderful haiku!
I have never seen a black lighthouse. Mostly they are red or white. Nice scenary.
beautiful scene, gemma!
I've never seen a black lighthouse, quite dramatic.
Cool, I love lighthouses! I grew up in Delaware and there's one or two black lighthouses, but of the metal variety
