Morris Island, South Carolina – Morris Island Lighthouse

This picture shows the lighthouse at Morris Island. It was taken in September 2006 by Laura Beane.

Laura writes us: "As South Carolina prepares to celebrate this irreplaceable maritime history symbol on October 1, 2006, I thought it appropriate to send this photo I took from the old Coast Guard Base on Folly Beach. I have visited and photographed many lighthouses, but no other light has captivated me more than this endangered light. She stands majestically at the entrance of the Charleston harbor calling for help. After visiting this lighthouse I can see and feel why this is such a beloved landmark to South Carolina and those who visit.
