I took a trip out to Lighthouse Park in West Vancouver yesterday evening, and headed to the Juniper Point viewpoint.
This is the view looking south from Juniper Point. The foreground cliffs are often used by rock climbers (including some who appeared about two feet in front of me after I'd been there for a few minutes, which gave me quite a surprise!). In the distance can be seen the University Endowment Lands where UBC is located, at the western tip of the peninsula.
This is a three minute exposure taken quite a while after sunset. I was hoping for more colour in the sky, but there was quite a lot of cloud cover, especially to the west. I expect I will revisit this location when a more promising sunset is forecast, however, I like the subtle tones in this photo.

Pigeon Point Lighthouse in Pescadero, Calfornia...Let me just say Wayward Imagery​ and I had to work for these shots!
We arrived in darkness on a stormy night in January only to be told there was no power at the lighthouse and hostel. We literally unpacked by flashlight with no dinner and miles away from any restaurants and this was my first experience staying in a hostel. :P Days of rain thwarted our efforts of getting any great shots but finally on the day we were leaving and had the car packed up the sun came out. We stood on the cliff finally able to use our Lee filters and shot away!!!

Wow, this one is amazing. If you think it looks stunning and would be a dream to photograph, you're right. The picture does not do this one justice. This was shot about 10 minutes before official sunset around 22:20 local time. At this point in the year, there is no true "sunset" or "dark" and you hover between twilights, depending on the hour and where you are in Scotland. The clouds and limited light give the image such character. Shot with a Sigma 14-24mm on my 5D @ 14mm.
About: Neist Point Lighthouse, designed by David Alan Stevenson, was first lit on 1 November 1909. An aerial cableway is used to take supplies to the lighthouse and cottages. Since 1990, the lighthouse has been operated remotely from the Northern Lighthouse Board headquarters in Edinburgh.
Another shot of the Tavy Bridge taken last Friday evening at Warleigh Point. I was hoping the tide would be higher to get a reflection of the bridge, so I'll have to go back again soon.
I welcome your comments, both positive and constructive.
Porth Nanven beach Cornwall. Although not clear from this photograph alone it was strange that all the lines in the sand led to this one large boulder, as if in accusation!
"The Point Reyes". The Point Reyes has seen more seaworthy days, but she is still a beauty. Taken at sunset yesterday evening with a beautiful low fog hovering over Tomales Bay in the warm pink light.

Wellington Point is a picturesque coastal suburb on Moreton Bay, located to the east of Brisbane. It is known for its natural "point," a narrow, tree-lined peninsula that juts into the bay, popular for its picnic and barbecue areas. At low tide, visitors can walk across a narrow sandbar to the nearby King Island, a unique experience. The area is famous for its stunning water views and spectacular sunrises and sunsets. "Wello Point" is a hub for recreational activities, including fishing, windsurfing, and boating. The area's atmosphere, with its majestic old Moreton Bay fig trees, makes it a peaceful and relaxing destination.
After 'foretaste' I headed up over the headland to catch the show in case it was a fizzer ..
This is above the entry to the 'Blowhole' that Kiama is famous for, interestingly when looking south (as we are here) at Kiama we're looking to the 'Heights' and Kiama Downs is in the North - has always tickled my sense of irony.
