POINT VICENTE LIGHTHOUSE
Los Angeles, California

This one is a pleasant cruise along the Palos Verde Peninsula north from Point Fermin. You'll see it from the road and there is a left turn that I missed and had to turn around and come back to.

And the fence is high enough that I couldn't look over it, so to take these pictures, you have to put your lens right up against the chain link fence and use more telephoto than wide angle. A narrow depth of field will also help to eliminate the diamond shape of the fencing.
Here's how I saw it:
