The old lighthouse keeper's house at King Point has been empty for many years, and is located on the rocks at the water's edge near the entrance to Princess Royal Harbour in Albany. Apparently the lighthouse was first lit in 1858.
We recently visited King Point to photograph the sunset, and once it was dark, we photographed some steel wool spinning in the house, as shown in the photo above.

The photo above shows the ruins of the lighthouse keeper's house, and below is a photo showing just how close to the water's edge the house was located.

The photo below was accidental, but resulted in an interesting shot. I was triggering my camera using my Plato wireless shutter release, and must have accidentally triggered the camera when the remote was in my pocket. This resulted in a nearly 5-minute exposure, showing some steel wool spinning, as well as the path of several people walking around with torches.
