Dunkirk Lighthouse sits at the end of a pier on Lake Erie — a classic maritime subject framed by water, sky and seasonal ice. Shoot long exposures of waves and the pier, golden-hour sunsets over the lake, and close architectural details of the red-and-white tower. Accessible from Lighthouse Point Park with nearby parking; pier access can be windy and icy in winter. Weekday mornings and late evenings reduce crowds. No entry into the active tower except during special events.
