密西根州那座有名的大紅燈塔 中英解說

密西根州那座有名的大紅燈塔


以前和一些攝影高手們關係不錯，其中有一位朋友喜歡拍燈塔，哪裏有燈塔他就去哪裏旅遊，旅遊的目的就是拍燈塔，這讓我對燈塔頗有好感，因為他拍的很漂亮。這座大紅燈塔是密西根湖100多座燈塔裏的第12座，一個很有名的燈塔，在密西根州的中部，還是南部我有點忘了。

去的那天天氣不好，風浪很大，要下暴雨了，腳架搖恍的曆害，但也因為有這樣的大風，才能拍到一排又一排的浪花向岸邊湧來，非常的沒，解說詞參照網絡資料重新編寫。

請點擊視頻聽我講解這座大紅燈塔。


The Holland Harbor Light, known as Big Red, is located in Ottawa County, Michigan at the entrance of a channel onnecting Lake Michigan with Lake Macatawa, and which gives access to the city of Holland, Michigan.

因為有Lake Michigan作為湖岸線，美國的Michigan state有不少有名的燈塔。荷蘭港燈塔（Holland Harbour lighthouse）就是其中的一座，荷蘭港燈塔建於1907年，連接Lake Michigan和Lake Macatawa河道的南部。

燈塔旁邊是一個麵積極大的沙灘，在這裏有兒童樂園，可以衝浪，玩遊艇，放風箏等等是個一家人都能玩的好地方。

因為燈塔外觀鮮紅，被人們親切地稱為“大紅燈塔（Big Red）”。燈塔非常美，來這裏拍照的人絡繹不絕。這座燈塔經曆了修繕，現由荷蘭港燈塔曆史委員會（Holland Harbor Lighthouse Historical Commission）管理。

Let me talk about some history of this lighthouse.

The first lighthouse built at this location was a small, square wooden structure erected in 1872. In 1880 the lighthouse service installed a new light atop a metal pole in a protective cage. The oil lantern was lowered by pulleys for service. At the turn of the century, a steel tower was built for the light and in 1907 the present structure was erected.

The lighthouse, popularly referred to as "Big Red," was automated in 1932. When the U. S. Coast Guard wanted to abandon it in 1970, citizens took actions to rescue it. The Holland Harbor Lighthouse Historical Commission was then organized to preserve and restore this landmark. Except for its color, it is a virtual twin of the Kewaunee Pierhead Light on the Wisconsin side of Lake Michigan. In 2007, the United States Department of the Interior announced that the Holland Harbor Light would be protected, Big Red became the 12th Michigan lighthouse.

我們那天到的時候快要下大雨了，湖上風呼呼的吹，湖麵的浪頭一排又一排，很難得的拍下了這麽漂亮的浪花和浪排。

燈塔是位於海岸、港口或河道，指引船隻方向的建築物。燈塔常用來標誌危險的海岸、險要的沙洲以及通往港口的航道。

燈塔大部份都類似塔的形狀，透過塔頂的透鏡係統，將光芒射向海麵。在電力未普及的時候，燈塔以火作為光源。用燈塔來幫助船隻已經有幾千年的曆史了，隨著電子導航設備的發展，人為操作的燈塔數量大大減少。現在全世界僅有一千多座的燈塔還在使用。許多古老而有特色的燈塔成為了旅遊景點。



這裏我拍了很多，又做了這個我唱的兵哥哥的視頻，有燈塔就想到了兵哥哥這首歌：））
