Default Peggy's Cove Lighthouse

This is something different I did this week, I put a solar light in upside down and put mirrors on the bottom to reflect the light to the solar collector. It looks pretty good at the location it's at because of the rocks. 4 ft tall

Thanks, I used a regular garden path solar light from Walmart it's smaller than the usual ones you see.
