Actually, not much is growing, Prudence. If you look at the far side of the field you can see where the wind whips over the clifftop and stunts the crop. The tree by the lighthouse gates is an evergreen oak and is only half the size it should be. It's pretty exposed up there. Maine is pretty much like Norfolk; the same seafood, lighthouses and … er … potatoes.
That's precisely the effect I was going for, Speedway. I've taken loads of shots of lighthouses with the sea in the photo so I wanted something a bit different.

Well, you know all that starch would give you that heavy sinking feeling.
Beautiful! I was going to ask what was growing but Vic answered it for me. My family were tater farmers from way back in Northern, northern Maine.

At first it looked like a vast farm field in Iowa, with a landlocked lighthouse.

Good this the lighthouse is there -- there's nothing worse than a shipwreck on a spud reef.
LOL!! Very impressive lighthouse; rather spectacular really.
And the word today is "obellsin" - a sinning obelisk!
Hee hee, Ms.M. That would make quite a mess.
What a great new word, Mme.
