A dramatic black and white photograph capturing the historic Charlotte-Genesee Lighthouse and keeper's house in Rochester, New York. The composition features the striking white cylindrical lighthouse tower alongside a classic brick Federal-style keeper's residence. The dramatic sky above showcases sweeping cirrus clouds creating a moody atmosphere. The well-preserved 19th-century architecture is accentuated by bare winter trees and a stone pathway leading to the entrance. This historic maritime beacon, established in 1822, stands as one of the oldest surviving lighthouses on Lake Ontario, representing an important piece of Great Lakes maritime heritage.
