Thank you for your visit ;-)
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.
Perched on a cliff on the central California coast, 50 miles south of San Francisco, the 115-foot Pigeon Point Lighthouse, one of the tallest lighthouses in America, has been guiding mariners since 1872.
Journey to the edge, the rim, the point.
And when you stand
on that merging margin
you can take
your first step.
If Little House on the Prairie took place on the California coast. And was possibly a murder mystery.
Location: Point Reyes National Seashore
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.
Inspiration Point overlooking Glen Lake, Michigan. You can see the Sleeping Bear Dunes and South Manitou Island from this high observation point. Happy Bench Monday
Although this appears to be just a gravel point, Sturgeon Point extends underwater for several miles and has caused many shipwrecks. It is most likely underlain by a rock reef. In 2020 when the Great Lakes were at or near record high levels the point was not visible and the shoreline was straight across this location. With the water level receding the point formed again. It is a very dynamic feature and looks different every time I visit.
It can get quite rough here with waves bringing cobbles and boulders to the beach. The point breaks the waves, lowering their energy, thus causing deposition of the coarse gravel. This is a favorite place for rockhounds looking for pretty rocks and Petoskey stones, the latter being fossil Devonian corals, Michigan's state fossil (Hexagonaria percarinata).

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!
Taken about a month ago from the Glacier Point overlook in Yosemite National Park. Visible in this pano: Half Dome, Vernal Falls, Nevada Falls and more.

This scene comes from a morning shoot at Fort Baker. The Needles, remnants of the Lime Point Lighthouse, and Golden Gate Bridge are seen here, as well as Old Ft. Point. Oh, and some seagulls.
Thanks for having a look!

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.
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.”

Amtrak's westbound Capitol Limited, which I believe at this time was still numbered as train 441 (the D.C. section of the Broadway Limited), rolls west at Point of Rocks, MD.
Just got home from 9 days down in Cali and had the chance to get out shooting with Bluey a couple times including a trip to Yosemite and a trip to Point Lobos. I also made it into the city with Jim Patterson for a decent sunset last night. This image was taken at Point Lobos. This was my first time visiting this area but will NOT be my last. The coastline along here is absolutely amazing. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving week and I will catch up with everything you all have been shooting in the next couple days.

The Tawas Point State Park is known for the spring and autumn warbler migrations. The Spring migration occurs in May. This year, the state rebuilt the access road to the point. As a result, the road was closed until May 31st. By the time I could get there on June 8th, the warblers were gone.
No worries. The lighthouse, pier, and shore birds were interesting enough to make the trip worthwhile.
Shot on an Olympus 35RC. The film rewind crank broke off and I had to force the film out and rewind it myself, thus exposing it to light in the process.

Liverpool's distinctive "hunchbacked" light is the third-oldest surviving lighthouse in Nova Scotia and marked the town's inner harbour from 1855 until the Coast Guard turned it off in 1989. The light had a resident keeper until 1964. His duties included the sounding of a hand-cranked fog horn in answer to signals from vessels during "thick" weather. The lighthouse and attached dwelling have been restored to show life in the era of the last keeper. Climb the lighthouse for a view of Liverpool Bay, and try your hand at the crank fog horn. The museum is staffed by interpreters in period costume and features Maritime and Privateering history. (http://www.nslps.com/AboutLights/detail_popup.aspx?ID=131)
