OK, how about another lighthouse? It's located in the U.S.

This one I know - being intimately familiar with Cherry Point, Camp Lejeune, Onslow Beach and all of that...
That would be at Cape Lookout, NC
Lighthouses for $400...
This one carries cinematic significance

Reminds me a lot of the Hillsboro Lighthouse at Pomano Beach, Florida. Similar structure but the Hillsboro Lighthouse is taller. That design of lighthouse has been used a lot in Florida.

I had thought FLA at first glance (Palm tree), but there isn't a hill like that anywhere's in the Sunshine State. That's a newer design light than mine above, is it US or maybe the Auld Sod? But the palm trees say it ain't Ireland .. Seems like at one point way long ago this thread had some lighthouse action ..

San Diego Point Loma - I must be getting lucky to have been at both that one & Cape Lookout
Yes sir
Also used in the original Top Gun movie as the home where Maverick paid Viper a visit

This is similar but not that far south ..
Did you know Point Lookout lighthouse is now solar powered with LEDs? It used to have two really powerful aircraft landing lights that rotated. Now, it is a flashing LED that only gets out about half the previous distance and does not rotate. I remember camping on the Outer Banks and being able to see the old-style lighthouse beacon. So, I guess the old magic has passed now.

Time for a hint maybe - the light in question was I believe used in two or mebbe three locations - name one of them, though two are not far apart
Is that the Chicago Harbor Lighthouse off shore from the Navy Pier? I was just there the other day.

Chicago Harbor Light is it - various sources have it as Rawley Point, WI or Waackaack NJ ,, been years since I was at Navy Pier
I will.post the new pic when I get back to my pc. Stand by
Brad - where are you?? Waiting for a picture from you!!
OMG. I totally spaced on posting a pic. I am so sorry guys. Here you go....
To continue on with the theme, this is a pretty cool lighthouse. This is not my photo. I have been to this one many times, but I dont have a photo as nice as this one. There are some hints in the pic if you look hard.

Looks a tad like the light at Battle Island, Thunder Bay Ontario ..

The Battle Island lighthouse is octagonal in shape. @BradWorld's photo shows a circular shaped lighthouse.
Nope.
