This is Split Rock Light at Two Harbors, MN. The light is decomissioned, but is part of Split Rock State Park.

Residing in Minnesota myself, visits to Split Rock are often on my agenda of north shore adventuring. Nice mood shot! I had not seen a silhouetted composition before at this locale. What were the specs, ie. f stop/shutter speed, etc.?

Beautiful light. I was there last week but it was a bright sunny day.
