Steadfast, serene, immovable... - a photo on Flickriver

"Steadfast, serene, immovable, the same
Year after year, through all the silent night
Burns on forevermore that quenchless flame,
Shines on that inextinguishable light!"
- Longfellow, "The Lighthouse".

"The Mersey Bluff Lighthouse was established in 1889 and is built of bricks on a stone base.... In 1910 the original kerosene lamp was converted to acetylene gas which was supplied by a Colt seven-day acetylene generator.

The light was converted to DC electric operation in 1920 and demanned at the same time. It was connected to mains power in 1978.... The establishment of the lighthouse ended a history of wrecks in this area."

I think that final sentence says it all.
