Beautiful photos! BUT.... if it is your favorite lighthouse you need to learn its name! A "head" is a rocky promontory jutting out into the ocean. Many Maine lighthouses (and I am sure many around the world) are located on rocky "heads". Far up the coast on the border with Canada there is the beautifully striped West Quoddy Head Lighthouse - and across the bridge on the far end of Campobello Island (New Brunswick Canada - you need a passport!) is the equally stunning red and white "East Quoddy Head Lighthouse" (Quoddy refers to the Passamaquoddy Bay).

So.... in South Portland, sitting atop the Portland Head, you have the Portland Head Lighthouse. It is not a headlight. A headlight is found on a car. Not to be confused with a headlamp, which can be found on a miner. Or camper. Or handyman!
