Point Arena Light is a lighthouse in Mendocino County, California, two miles north of Point Arena. It is approximately 130 miles north of San Francisco, in the Fort Point Group of lighthouses. The lighthouse features a small museum and gift shop. Guided tours of the light station as well as self-guided tours of the grounds are available daily. The original lighthouse, built in 1876, was heavily damaged by the San Francisco earthquake in 1906, and had to be demolished. It was subsequently rebuilt, and the current lighthouse began operation in 1908. It is 115 feet tall, and was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.

Only a very small chunk of what is probably the most beautiful and varied stretch of coast in California.
At Lancing ring . A bit odd but it looked like someone had poured Baked beans on top of the Trig point

Bethlehem Steel’s Patapsco & Back Rivers painted one of its EMD-re-engined Baldwin S12’s in a bicentennial scheme. Here the tribute unit works at the mill in Sparrows Point, Maryland.
Just a short drive past the smelliest toilets in the entire Western world lies the fabulous Zabriskie Point, in Death Valley. Everyone else shoots this when there are deep shadows just after sunrise, or well before sunset, in order to show the play of light and contrast on these badlands. Instead, I present this fantastic landscape well after sunset, when the colours come alive to those who can see.

After the Endurance was wrecked in Weddell Sea ice in 1915, Ernest Shackleton and his crew took refuge at Point Wild, an inhospitable rocky spit on the north coast of Elephant Island, Antarctica.
Having crossed the rough and windy Drake Passage, our first destination in the Antarctic was Elephant Island, famously the site where Ernest Shackleton left his crew to seek help at South Georgia Island.
The orange area on the rock is a Chinstrap Penguin colony with thousands of penguins and their associated guano.

This historic 19th century lighthouse sits on high bluffs so it doesn't need to be tall. It was built to aid navigation into the large bay and harbor just south of here. It's located in Point Fermin Park and lies on the north side of the bay that has the Port of Los Angeles and Long Beach Port, the busiest port in the U.S.
In Northern California about an hour and a half from San Francisco, the Point Reyes Lighthouse is situated along the Pacific Ocean. The climb down is over 35 stories of steps to reach the structure and what goes down must come back up. My wife and I made the trek about a week ago. The views are absolutely stunning. We were able to see whales from the viewing area below. The California coastline never fails to impress with it's huge cliffs overlooking the vast blue sea.
The lighthouse was assigned to Point Reyes in 1855, but construction was delayed for fifteen years because of a dispute between the United States Lighthouse Board and the landowners over a fair price for the land. The lighthouse is a sixteen sided, 37-foot (11 m) tower, and a twin of Cape Mendocino Light. The first-order Fresnel lens was first lit on December 1, 1870. Electricity came to the lighthouse in 1938, and concrete steps were built into the cliff in 1939. The station was automated in 1975.
The lighthouse was used as a location for the 1980 John Carpenter film The Fog.
Rhych point Porthcawl. I made the trip to have a look at Ogmore but when I visited in the afternoon the sun was in the wrong place so I went across ot Porthcawl to grab some lunch. While there this tower caught my eye.
This is taken with my new Voigtlander 20mm, so I've spent some time trying to decern some difference from my previous lens & therefore justify spending even more money on photography toys. I have to say I'm quite please with the sharpness of the lens.
