Default Looking for Pictures of Spindle Point Lighthouse

Hello,
I am looking for pictures of Spindle Point Lighthouse so I can do a painting of that location. Can anyone point me to pictures of Spindle Point? (It is located near Meredith)

Thank you.

Google "Spindle Point", without the quotes.

Click on "images".

Voilą.

Oh that would be wonderful. iPhone is fine. Not sure about best angles, but anything that makes the light house stand out against the background. I've never been up that way so I'm not sure what to advise. Anything would helpful.

Thanks so much!!

It looks like the trees at the end were trimmed. Is that the way it looks today?

On page 97 of Bruce D. Heald Ph.D's book, Follow the Mount is a picture of the front view that shows the steps and a bit of a different paint job from the all- white scheme that one sees now. There used to be stairs inside (back in the 1960s) that were more than rickety even then.
