魔幻时刻 A magic hour indeed

沃尔顿灯塔，圣克鲁斯，加利福尼亚州

走进美国西部边缘，这里是沃尔顿灯塔的所在地。沃尔顿灯塔又名圣克鲁斯防波堤灯塔，是过往船只的指路明灯。2002年，这座40英尺高的现代海上建筑物在加利福尼亚州圣克鲁斯建成完工，取代了之前那座朴素简陋的灯塔。沃尔顿灯塔得名于商人查尔斯·沃尔顿，为了纪念自己的兄弟德里克·沃尔顿，他慷慨地捐赠了这座灯塔的建设费用。

自1800年代中期以来，圣克鲁斯一直是一座繁忙的港口城市，当时的船只会在这里卸下石灰、红木及其他农产品等货物。如今，圣克鲁斯港是商业捕鱼船队的所在地，也是出租皮划艇、小船和冲浪板的热门地点。

Walton Lighthouse, Santa Cruz, California

Step to the western edge of America, where the Walton Lighthouse, also known as the Santa Cruz Breakwater Lighthouse, is a beacon for passing ships. Built in 2002, this 40-foot-tall building replaced a more modest light. The Walton Lighthouse got its name from Charles Walton, a businessman who helped fund its construction in memory of his brother Derek, a merchant seaman who died at sea during World War II.

Santa Cruz has been a busy port city since the mid-1800s, when ships would unload lime, redwood, and other agricultural products. These days, Santa Cruz Harbor is home to a commercial fishing fleet, as well as a popular place to rent kayaks, boats, and paddleboards.
