Description
(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved) The oldest sea port in the United States was once home to early explorers from Spain. In 1513 they named this region La Florida, or the Land of Flowers. As a navigational aid for their ships sailing the waters near the north end of Anastasia Island, the Spaniards built a watchtower which later became Florida's first lighthouse. Due to storms and erosion it eventually came crashing down into the sea in 1880. A replacement tower built of Alabama brick and Philadelphia iron was completed in 1874. This classic structure in St. Augustine still proudly stands 165 feet high and has 219 spiral steps leading to the top for a great view of the coast and the famous city below. I was inspired to climb to the top one day when I saw the magnificent black and white stripes and this beautiful... Black And white Window.
I created this image from my original photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures and other effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green square magnifier as the cursor is placed over the image.
PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.
Many thanks and best wishes!
