Trying to do a lighthouse after DreamChaser asked about it in p.t.s-f.
I found enough info and photos on the web to base it on.  Most complete
lighthouse I have done to date, and all in one afternoon.  One of those
motivational things  :-)  Long way to go before it could be considered
complete, as I don't know a few aspects about the real building.

Okay, well this animation is supposed to be a dusk to mid-day time-lapse
sort of thing while the light beam rotates just once; it's loopable.  I have
no idea which direction this faces, maybe Jeff can tell me that.  The camera
moves closer and upward then back to eye-level again.  Reason the ground
looks the way it does is I tried to mimic the Florida gulf coast sand
vegetation mix using colors alone, not even a ocean in this so don't bother
to look for one  :-)

To Jeff, hope you like it.  To everyone else, likewise.

Bob
