I love it when friends have birthday celebrations on cool places. This weekend we booked a big group campsite at Salt Point State Park. With the coast right near our site, I of course had to sneak off and snap a few frames for sunset.
Start Point, South Hams, Devon.
I think this is my favourite shot from my recent trip to Start Point.
It was blowing a gale and I had to crouch over my camera to stop it being buffeted by the wind, I had to go for a low angle on the tripod to keep any movement to an absolute minimum. This was a 20 second exposure, I took about 20 shots just hoping that one would be in focus, I just about got lucky. I like the foreground interest with the wild flowers and the way the headland leads your eye to the lighthouse and the blurred skies, cant wait to go back again. Incidentally in between shots I was kept amused by a seal who seemed quite interested in what I was doing and kept coming up real close, a stunning place to be.

Thank you for your visit ;-)
good or bad but more and more my shots from Split are explored, now suddenly 15 are explored in last few weeks, none of them on the first page though.
Here are the latest entries:
I wonder how Flickr could miss this one, it should be on the front page of explore long time ago.
I found it quite difficult to take the lighthouse at Neist Point. If you stand on top of the cliffs there are some good foreground rocks but I wanted a shot where the headland broke the horizon. To get the headland to break the horizon I went down the steps then traversed back under the line of cliffs. It was difficult to find any interesting foreground features so I spent a good 20 minutes or see before I came up with anything that worked.
If you were walking the South West Coast Path continuously from Minehead to Poole you would reach halfway at this point on the eastern side of the Lizard Peninsula
Statue of Captain Luis Pardo who sailed the Yelcho and rescued Shackleton's men who lived here for 137 days. Today the place is called Point Wild after Frank Wild.
Taken from the opposite side of Polbream Cove in the foreground, Lizard Point stands tall at the southernmost part of the United Kingdom, where a couple of cafes and the 'Art on Point' gallery are also located.

Point Hyllie is an important part of the new urban space around Hyllie station square. The development consists of four tower blocks rising up from a column-supported base.
The tallest building is approximately 95 m high, the next-tallest 49 m, and the final two between 29 and 23 m high. The two tallest buildings, the twin towers, will according to the architect symbolize a gateway to Sweden.
The project is a distinctive landmark in the area.
Another mild and windless day, makes you wonder what nasty weather is coming :-) We paid a quick visit to Doctors Point beach just north of Dunedin this morning, it was beautiful there!

- www.kevin-palmer.com - It was 17 miles completed, with 6 more to go on the longest hike I've ever done. It's hard to appreciate the size and depth of the Grand Canyon without seeing it from within. From many of the viewpoints along the rim, you can't even see the bottom because the canyon is so deep with many layers. The park service advises against hiking to the bottom and back in the same day, but it's not impossible with the right planning and preparation. And a dayhike was my only option since I lacked a backcountry permit. On my way back up the Bright Angel trail, I made a detour to Plateau Point, where I found this sweeping view of the Colorado River. The river flows 1400 feet below this point, while the rim rises 3-4 thousand feet above. The upper portion of the trail was the most brutal part with 35 switchbacks in the last 3 miles. The weather was as nice as it could have been, with the temperature swinging from the 20's to 80°F during the course of the day.
Déjà’s mother was a crack addict and prostitute. At five Déjà started raising the other five children in the house. All shared a mother and none shared a father.
At nine her mother was taken away and the children split up. Déjà ran away from her foster family at twelve and came out as a woman. “I picked up all sorts of habits. I started doing things I don’t do, including smoking crack like my momma did.”
She has been in Hunts Point only a week, “I relapsed so here I am.”
She lives with Michael in an empty lot, working the track at night. “The only way I can prostitute is to drink and to do cocaine. How can you pretend to love and have sex otherwise? Addiction makes you do things you don't want to do.”
She sat in the cold spray of the hydrant, cooling off.
“I want the white picket fence, the Tupperware parties, the husband and kids.”
“Dream? That’s a fairy tale not a dream. Out here you can’t have dreams.”

There is a whole lot of nothing in this pic, yet it speaks to me for some reason - just like the scene spoke to me when I first saw it and I felt the need to capture it.
This is in western Saskatchewan near the Alberta border and the village of Empress, Alberta. I'm facing the opposite direction of when I took this shot. It is near the confluence of the Red Deer and South Saskatchewan rivers.
This scene reminds me of a Nitty Gritty Dirt Band song called Long Hard Road.
Point Bonita is the south-western tip of the Marin Headlands, just north of San Francisco. This was taken four years ago on one of the most "-est" shooting nights: my first self-organized get-together of night photographers; my first night shooting digital; the best night weather I've ever experienced on the coast; and the biggest group of night photographers that ever turned up for an unofficial shoot.
South Shields - The best light was in the other direction which I suppose is normasl for this time of year.
Located where the Link River meets Upper Klamath Lake, Putnam's Point is a great place to view clarks and western grebes. We had the good fortune of spending a few days at this location. Absolutely amazing and a tremendous amount of fun. Klamath Falls, Oregon, 5/2017
Ardnave Point
This is a fascinating and very quiet area where you can enjoy the sea and the views to other islands, to walk the beaches, enjoy the dunes and observe the wildlife. I was seen off by two Oystercatchers who must have chicks nearby and the last time I was here Turnstone chicks landed in the water and paddled over my feet, it was an experience I have never forgotten.
This is an image from Lindy Point right below the overlook of the sunset. This viewing station is in Blackwater Falls State Park, WV. Caught a starburst at the bottom of the dark clouds which made it cool. Had a great time in the short period we were there. Very unusual trip down to WV this year. Nice water flow at Swallow in MD, Shay Run was flowing nice, got a starburst sunset at Lindy Point and Sunrise the next morning at Dolly Sods. Can't ask for more than that huh? My Buddy Frank made his first trip down there with me and he lucked out on his first trip down. Good for him. I'm pretty sure he's hooked on the venues.
