The Gateway

Ming, Herring Point, The Naval Jetty, Battery, Cape Henlopen Light, whatever you call it, it’s one of the best places on our coast. A high point which once was home to the Cape Henlopen Light.  It’s one of the spiritual places I go for a boost. I’m connected to it for reasons I can’t explain officially. Except that my 3x great grandpa was a light keeper for the Hooper Straight Light, and I went here after every great loss in my life and it seemed to bring me to center. I guess the only explanation is it’s home.

Wikipedia will give you details of the old light house here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cape_Henlopen_Light

  • Photography grounds me and elates me. I am inspired by nature and its perfection. I see things that compel me to take a photograph, things that are ordinary, or small and go unseen by others. This is my purpose as a visual story teller. See my work in the Beach Paper and the Cape Gazette, or visit my website denyhoweth.com.
