Many thanks for your visits, kind comments and faves, very much appreciated.

* A second shot from Spurn Point this time looking inland. Spurn is well known as somewhere to see fantastic sunsets . However this evening it was not that spectacular but still rather enjoyable to see . This was taken looking across the Humber estuary towards the East Yorkshire “ mainland “ . There is not a lot of water in the shot just some very wet mudbanks .

If you are interested in the area there is a description of Spurn Point in the text of my previous post

 

THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT TO MY STREAM.

I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD NOT FAVE A PHOTO

WITHOUT ALSO LEAVING A COMMENT .

Isn't it just like Heaven

When You walk into the room

There's not a thing that's hidden

When every eye is on You

Can't get enough of Your presence

It's the perfect point of view

Isn't it just like, just like

Just like Heaven?

Hmm, come a little closer, stay a little longer

Hmm, I can't get enough of You

Hmm, come a little closer, stay a little longer

Hmm, I can't get enough of You

Doesn't it sound like Heaven

When You're singing over me

There's not a voice more constant

Your melodies, they never cease

Here I will stand in Your presence

In my true identity

Doesn't it sound like, yeah, it sounds like

Just like Heaven

DELFT Railway Station - Het nieuwe station is met twee ondergrondse eilandperrons een uniek station dat door het slimme gebruik van daglicht en kunstlicht als een open, overzichtelijke en veilige plek wordt ervaren. De spil van het station is het brede stijgpunt met de mezzanine (tussenverdieping) die toegang geeft tot de perrons, de fietsenstalling en de stationshal en een ruimtelijk geheel met deze hal vormt.

 

DELFT Railway Station - the new station with two underground Island platforms a unique station that through the smart use of daylight and artificial light as an open, orderly and safe place is experienced. The spindle of the drive is the wide take off point with the mezzanine level giving access to the platforms, the bike shed and the station Hall and a spatial whole with this Hall.

DEW POINT

The dew point is the temperature at which dew would form assuming all other conditions remained the same. The dew point is a function of the air temperature and humidy. The dew point temperature can never be higher than the air temperature. If the dew point temp and air temp are the same, than the humidity must be 100%.

Un grand merci à toutes et tous pour votre attention et regard à cette capture photographique.

 

A big thank you to everyone for your attention and look at this photographic capture.

 

I always loved my raw images more than my edited ones...something about the authenticity. .

Jutting out into the Pacific Ocean from the spectacular Big Sur Coast, the Point Sur Lighthouse stands as a silent sentinel to a by-gone era.

Point Sur, a National Historic Landmark, is the only complete turn-of-the-century light station open to the public in California.

From 1899 until 1974, families lived and worked in the buildings atop Point Sur. Today the place is a ghost town.

The unique stone lighthouse still guides ships with its light, though it is now totally automated.

  

Thank you for your comments,

Glacier's Grinnell Point framed with autumn gold.

 

Fall is coming, hurray. Been a hot, smoky summer. Looking forward to a few good photo safaris when the colors are turning and the wildlife is on the move.

 

Thanks for taking a look. Always appreciated.

 

Have a wonderful Wednesday.

Shortly after shooting the lighthouse posted before this, and after the sun had set, I was shooting some long exposures on the water and looked up and saw this amazing sky. It only lasted a few minutes but it was one of the best I've ever seen.

My submission for the Smile on Saturday theme of Vanishing Point.

Pontoon Dock DLR Station to St Mark's church, Silvertown

Hexagonal in shape, Gibraltar Point Lighthouse was built of limestone from the Queenston Quarry near Niagara River and originally stood sixteen metres (fifty-two feet) tall, until it was raised nine metres (thirty-feet) in 1832 to a total height of twenty-five metres (eight-two feet). No light was shown from the lighthouse from May 30 until nearly the end of June in 1932 while the lighthouse was being modified.

 

John P. Rademuller was hired as the first keeper of the lighthouse, and he served until he met a tragic end, as reported in the January 14, 1815 edition of theYork Gazette:

 

Died on the evening of the 2nd of January, J.P. Rademuller, keeper of the lighthouse on Gibraltar Point. From circumstances, there is moral proof of his having been murdered. If the horrid crime admits of aggravation when the inoffensive and benevolent character of the unfortunate sufferer are considered, his murder will be pronounced most barbarous and inhuman. The parties lost with him are the proposed perpetrators and are in prison.

 

Three months later, the Gazette reported, “No conviction of the supposed murderers of the late J.P. Rademuller.” Though the details of what happened that night in January 1815 have been lost, legend has it that soldiers from the York garrison visited Gibraltar Point that night to obtain beer from Keeper Rademuller. Some accounts say the keeper refused to sell to the soldiers, and others claim he overcharged them, but all agree that the soldiers became enraged, killed the keeper, and disposed of his body.

gazing southward from atop the bluffs overlooking Pacific Beach, as the radiant light of the rising sun revealed a wonderful view, which included a man and his dog walking the beach; some surfers hitting the ocean waves; sleepy Crystal Pier and Hotel; the outlying Point Medanos Jetty; and even more distant, Ocean Beach Pier.

... at Pemaquid Point. A great sunset there while we visited. Ms. Krach purchased two 'to be used' metal prints from a company through Living Social I think. This shot may be one that I get done in metal (aluminum).

Point Wilson Lighthouse, Port Townsend, Washington, USA

One of the most popular and iconic scenes in Yellowstone, with the Lower Falls of the Yellowstone River flowing thru the chasm it's water's created.

 

"Many people think that this was the spot where famous artist Thomas Moran painted to inspire Congress in 1872. Yellowstone Park photographer F. Jay Haynes thought the same thing. He mistakenly named the overlook in his 1890 guidebook and on his hand-colored postcards.

 

However, Moran's paintings were actually created at the north rim overlook named Moran Point by the first Hayden Survey in the 1870s. There is more confusion here - Moran Point is also called Lookout Point, Mount Lookout, Lookout Rock, and Prospect Point. On current day official park maps, it's called Lookout Point."

Regardless of how it was named this is still one of the finest views in the park. And many artist's paint and photographer's shoot from this ideal viewpoint.

 

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

So this is the Sugarloaf Point Lighthouse (1875).

Located at Seal Rocks - just a little to the north of Sydney.

 

Sugarloaf Point Lighthouse stands on a dramatic headland east of Seal Rocks village. Completed in 1875, it is the first lighthouse designed by colonial architect James Barnet and one of only two towers in Australia with an external stairway.

 

It was originally built to guide ships along the rocky coastline to the north of Sydney, after a number of incidents, including the shipwrecking of the SS Catterthun and the SS Rainbow.

 

Below the lighthouse are the Lighthouse Keepers’ quarters and outbuildings that have been refurbished to offer holiday accommodation for visitors.

The sunrise was uneventful but this cloud bank lit up towards the south away from the sun. The wonderful sandstone rock formations on the cliffs at Potter Point are a great foreground.
