This is a close-up photograph of the upper section of a maritime navigation marker, likely a daymark or part of a beacon. The marker features a prominent, large triangular topmark painted in red with a vertical white stripe down its center. A narrower black stripe runs vertically through the middle of the white stripe. The paint on the marker appears weathered, showing signs of exposure to the elements.
Above the main triangular shape, a light with a single blue or purple glow is mounted on a small pole. Behind this front structure is a taller, open red metal framework or tower, which supports additional equipment, including a pole with a small antenna or sensor at the very top. The entire structure is set against a bright, overcast sky with soft white and light gray clouds, emphasizing the stark colors of the navigational aid.
