First, many thanks to all the people who entered the contest! There were many entries, and it was so fun hearing from people I don't know who somehow found their way to this site! Thanks for taking the time to contact me.
So all of the guesses were part of a collection of just 4 answers:
1) Wood End Lighthouse
2) Chatham Break Lighthouse
3) Long Point Lighthouse
4) Race Point Lighthouse
Surprisingly, the correct choice got the fewest answers! The answer was Wood End Lighthouse in Provincetown, MA. It's way out on the tip of the Cape, just a little ways from the very end of the curve before the ocean. I knew it was going to be a tough answer, because Long Point is the very last lighthouse on the Cape, and looks very similar to Wood End. To check out a beautiful sunset shot of Wood End, go to Yankee magazine's website, or get it off the stands. This month's issue has a gorgeous image. See it here. Plus, the magazine's excellent and has wonderful advertisers. :)
The winner of the 8x12 print is Sharon K of CT! I will get it printed and sent right to your home address, Sharon.
Because the two lighthouses are so similar, I felt kind of bad for making the contest hard. So, I drew a second prize winner, and a 5x7 print goes to Brittany Koenig of OR! Brittany, you can shoot me an email of your home address and I'll get it sent to you.
Thanks to all who participated-- from all across the country. It was such enjoyment to get all your emails!
"It was on the break--the moon shone on its crest and tipped its foam with light. On it rushed beneath the inky sky, driven by the awful squall behind it."
