KEY BISCAYNE LIGHTHOUSE © 1984Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park, Florida
I rarely photograph man-made structures, but when I saw the lighthouse on Key Biscayne, its exotic presence inspired me to take a picture. Several years after I photographed it, Hurricane Andrew crossed over the island, leaving a path of destruction. The lighthouse survived, but the land surrounding it looks very different now.
