We are so fortunate to have so many beautiful places to photograph in the Sooner State. One such place is the iconic lighthouse at Lake Hefner in Oklahoma City. This setting looking looks more like something you would commonly find on the East Coast rather than here in the midwest. Keep scrolling to view 10 photographs of this lighthouse I found that will take your breath away.
