Northport Stacks

We were observing with our telescopes at the planetarium, and I happened to move away from the group down toward the water, so I could see if Saturn was rising. It was then that I noticed the reflection of the clearance lights on the smokestacks, reflected in the water. It was calm, so the harbor was a mirror. These are the "Northport Stacks" - part of the electric generating plant. The funny thing is, for pilots on Long Island, the stacks are a landmark for reporting your position when you are inbound to Republic Airport. This has such a nice feel to it - I need to do more night photography.
