This image was captured north of the tower to incorporate both the Calf of Man (to the right) and Port Erin Bay, in the background. A tripod was used to keep the ISO low and the camera stable in this exposed spot. A lens aperture setting of around f16 or f22 should ensure the foreground, tower and background all remain in focus.

About this spot
Milner's Tower on Bradda Head was built in 1871 by public subscription as a memorial to the benefactor of Port Erin, William Milner, who did much to help the village fishermen and the poor. Milner was a famous safemaker from Liverpool and the unusual shape of the Tower represents a key and a lock.
