Light At The End of The Boardwalk

I've been to Atlantic City several times already but visiting the Absecon Lighthouse was always just at the back of my mind. It's located near the very east end of the boardwalk which I've never ventured to reach by foot. Last week, I was able to finally see it up close because our hotel was conveniently within walking distance from it. Less than two blocks away.

During an evening stroll, my aunt and I walked to the lighthouse and talked about her college kid's concerns, life insurance rates, how much money my grandparents already lost at the casinos, and how I just can't get my camera's night setting right so the lighthouse ended up looking all orange.

Or maybe it's not really cut out for nighttime photography.
