Enlightening Images

These are images from the Keith Allardyce slide collection. There are over 10,000 images in the collection. The images cover a range of subjects from the lighthouses themselves, to the keepers at rest, to surrounding wildlife.

These are the most unusual or exciting images chosen by an intern at the Museum and show the variety and quality of the collection.
