Cape Canaveral Lighthouse – Throw Back Thursday to November 18, 2016.
Fall in Florida is still usually warm but when a cold front makes its way down to Cape Canaveral, the cool air mixes with the warm coastal breezes and a fog envelops the low lying areas and scrub around the launch sites and the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse.
On this particular day, November 16th, 2018 as rounded the corner out by the beach on my way to the Lighthouse, a light fog hid the Lighthouse on the approach road and as I reached the lighthouse the fog has all but disappeared.
There was a nice sunrise starting to happen and if you look closely in some of the photos the moon was also rising.

He has supported the Space Shuttle Program, International Space Station, 787 Dreamliner and most recently the Artemis Program. During his time at "The Cape" he photographed a majority of the Launch Sites at KSC and Cape Canaveral.
