Marking the southernmost point on the Icelandic mainland, the Dyrhólaey Lighthouse (Icelandic: Dyrhólaeyjarviti) 13 metres (43 feet) high. In a country where fishing disasters are memorialised all over the place, what this light, the first sign of their native land flashing white every ten seconds into the grey North Atlantic, must have meant to crews returning home.
The first lighthouse on the site was a skeletal steel tower prefabricated in Sweden, erected in 1910. The present lighthouse was built in 1927.
In the distance, the Reynisdrangar sea stacks at the end of the famous black sand Reynisfjara beach are visible - although in this shot, the beach itself is not.

I've written a blog post about my Newfoundland trip if you'd like to read it.

Dieser Gefängnisbau war die meiste Zeit seines Bestehens bekannt als "Sonderhaftanstalt des Ministeriums für Staatssicherheit der DDR Bautzen II", auch "StaSi-Knast" genannt. Heute ein sehenswertes Museum und ein heftiges Kontrast-Programm nach meinem Aschenbrödel-Wintermärchen am Vormittag. Auf 4 Stockwerken wird im ehemaligen Gefängnisbau der zumeist unmenschliche Haftalltag über 8 Jahrzehnte hinweg (1906-1992) dargestellt. Es mag nicht überraschen, dass ich auch hier wiederum vollkommen alleine unterwegs war (außer einem Aufseher im EG). Ein durchaus bedrückendes Erlebnis.

Sadly, despite the perfect mountain for their purposes, neither Castor nor Pollux chose to make an appearance in this photo of the Twin Peaks (sigh)... Anyways...
These are some of my favorite mountains in Utah to photograph. They're rugged, steep, colorful, and they have a magnificent form about them.
I was grateful, actually, for the slight shade that appeared on the ridge to the left. This seemed to accent the drama of just the right part of the mountain for me.
Still enjoying my time off. Today im heading to the beach again to soak up the sun and enjoy the sea air and listening to the waves crash. I love the beach but I do hope it doesnt get too hot. 😀
