Per "A History of the Sheringham Point Lighthouse," there have been more than 240 shipwrecks along the Vancouver Island coast since 1803. In 1906, the steamship SS Valencia hit a reef on the southwestern part of the island and sank. Only 37 of the 173 passengers aboard survived. In response to formal inquiries, Canada decided to build 12 more lighthouses in the area, including one at Sheringham Point in 1912. This is a Canadian "Heritage Lighthouse."

Street photography continued.

One day there was a parade of Fiat 126p cars. The one shown here is painted appropriately to commemorate August 1, 1944. This is the date of the outbreak of the Warsaw Uprising.

I am adding a link if any of you would like to know this story card.

My motivation to take a quick shot was also the surroundings. I hope you will like this photo as well.

Milky Way over Nugget Point lighthouse. Looks peaceful but night was actually really windy. I've spent nearly 2 hours in that spot holding the tripod really tight as wind was constantly trying to knock it over.

Rattlesnake Point receives its name from the snake-like path cut by glaciers along the edges of the Niagara Escarpment, rather than from the Massassauga Rattlesnake. It is one of the most scenic areas between Toronto and Hamilton, with old cedars, limestone cliffs, beautiful caves, and hiking trails. It is a United Nations Biosphere-protected area.

Our Navajo guide (Bernard) said stand on the "x" and take the shot. Even though I have stood in this spot a number of years ago as have many others it was fun to frame up this classic shot in beautiful Monument Valley.

Last light on Neist Point Lighthouse, Isle of Skye. Difficult to tell from this image but it was blowing a right hoolie, very hard to keep the camera still

Happy Bench Monday.

This is the cabin Mrs. Krach and I stayed in several nights when there in southern West Virginia. it was a great spot to stay there in Mill Point, and the sound of the creek while sitting on the porch and with the windows open was so refreshing.

Thanks for all your comments and faves, much appreciated as

always.

This picture was taken at Hut Point right outside of McMurdo Station Antarctica.

Taken along the point isabel to point richmond walkway on the east bay. It's wonderful how areas like this marshland still feel so wild. You can just see the bay bridge, and sf skyline on the far side.

Point Roadknight near Anglesea. Fantastic rocks, waves and rockpools

Changi Bay Point

This marina is an beautiful at night as it is during the day. I've discovered that even though I'm not really a boat person, I love being around boats like these. Meaning I don't really enjoy going out in boats, but I love to look at them and the reflections they create in the water.

Jamaica Bay

The light was beautiful as sunset approached at Marlboro Point near Canyonlands National Park.

From Chimney Rock Trail at Point Reyes National Seashore, this is the view looking east across Drake's Bay toward Mt. Tamalpais and Marin County. The actual chimney rock feature is just out of view behind the point in the center of this photo.

This is a contre-jour moonlight image as the moon had just risen from the horizon.

I hope you like this.
