This image of the lighthouse was taken on the cliffs of Neist Point in Scotland. To get here, you'll need a car. Also, please note: the road on the way to Neist Point Lighthouse is very thin and tight — be careful when you're driving on it.
Follow the GPS coordinates to Neist Car Park (57.429722, -6.778828) and then walk south toward the lighthouse for a view of the cliffside. Reference the coordinates as you're walking and you'll reach the exact spot where I stood to get this south-facing shot.
