Wind swept and pounded by waves, the North and South beaches of Point Reyes extend for mile after mile.
This photo was taken by a Pentax 6 X 7 medium format film camera and a Super-Multi-Coated Takumar/6X7 1:4.5/75mm lens with a ZYKKOR UV 82mm filter using Kodak Ektar 100 film, the negative scanned by an Epson Perfection V600 and digitally rendered with Photoshop.
Waves breaking on Red Point, Port Kembla. Red Point was named by lieutenant James Cook in 1770 because of soil colour.
Point Betsie Light is located on the northeast shore of Lake Michigan at the south entrance to the Manitou Passage north of Frankfort, Northern Michigan.
This is Point Wilson Lighthouse located at Fort Warden state park near Port Townsend Washington. Fort Warden has been an Army base, then a juvenile detention center, and now a state park.The lighthouse was built in 1913 and is on the national register of historic places.
I shot this back on New Years day 2010, and just reworked it. Fort Warden has the lighthouse as well as some pretty scenic beach areas. Great photo ops, but the wind is bitter cold.

Something I'd not come across before. Someone has used the trig point at the western end of Bradwell Moor as the basis for a seat. It was a bit too wet to try out though!
With my niece and photo assistant on a trip to Point Reyes awhile back. Revisited the photos with latest lightroom and updated.
For me Aguereberry Point is one of the most amazing viewpoints in Death Valley National Park. It is located in the Panamint Mountains high above the valley floor on the opposite side of famous Dante's View.

"Did I ever tell you how big Beijing's Subway is? 289 miles of railway, access tunnels and abandoned platforms. 289 miles. That's pretty fucking big.

Stiletto Alpha: "Heads up guys, we're approaching the entry point. I can feel it."
Stiletto Charlie: "Your spidey sense is tingling, is it? What a load of shit. You literally just checked the GPS."
Stiletto Bravo: "Shut up you fucktards! Alpha's right, entry point is twenty metres to my left. This maintenance tunnel should lead on to one of the waterlogged lines."
Stiletto Alpha: "See? I'm a wizard. *Chuckles* Let's get this done, my legs are freezing. This water smells something funny."
Stiletto Bravo: "You got family back home Alpha?"
Stiletto Alpha: "Yeah, why?
Stiletto Bravo: "I feel fucking sorry for them. As for the water, don't drink it. It's probably tainted with all sorts of chemical byproducts."
Stiletto Delta: "Just wanted to chime in from the rear. It's boring down here, no activity. No-one shooting at our backs. Genius, would you care to remind me why we're here?"
Stiletto Bravo: "We're here because Actual says we should be here."
Stiletto Alpha: "That's bollocks. We're here because Command wants a High heel so they can stab Ke Yecheng in the fucking balls."
Stiletto Delta: "For once man, you're actually right. See, the Armour and Mobile Infantry are the Hammer and Anvil. They crush ching-chong between their might. We're the precision tool. The Stiletto."
Stiletto Bravo: "I'd call that shameless self-advertising if you were talking to a reporter. Watch out ladies, I have a visual on the entry point. Charlie, deploy the telescopic ladder. Alpha, since you're such a nice person I've decided to nominate you as point man. Delta, bring up the rear."
Stiletto Alpha: "Fuck me."
Stiletto Delta: "Fuck you too."
The picture didn't turn out nearly as well as I wanted, but I took like 30 shots and this was the best one. So I suppose you'll just have to make do with this. My next scene will be better, I promise.
For Modern Conflict.

If you've ever walked the Gorge trail at Point Lookout on Stradbroke island, and heard what sounds like a whale's blowhole, this formation is the cause of that sound!

Point Judith Lighthouse is located at the confluence of Narragansett Bay and Block Island Sound. The waters near the point are cold and dangerous, the site of many shipwrecks over the centuries. The original lighthouse was built in 1810 but the present octdagnoal granite tower was constructed in 1856. This long exposure was made at dusk in late February.
Crown Point and the Columbia River Gorge from Chanticleer Point.
A bit more Columbia Gorge history for you. This photo was taken this morning while shooting with my Flickr friends Dave and Jeff. Please check out their stuff.
Chanticleer Point was once the home to The Chanticleer Inn, which was a roadhouse along the old Columbia River Highway. The old inn burned down in 1930 after which the Portland Woman's Forum bought the land which they ultimately turned over to the Oregon State Parks and Recreation Department for public use.
Dave was out from Ontario Canada and was hoping to catch a sunrise from Crown Point and a shot of Multnomah Falls. Jeff is a local photographer from Vancouver. Both were great guys that I had great fun shooting with.
PARIS.- Notre Dame Plaza ...
The "zero point" of the roads of France in Paris is the "kilometer 0" of the roads from the capital, which is used as a reference for the calculation of distances to other cities of France. It is located in front of "Notre-Dame de Paris".

Immediately add 'B' to 'A', add de-ionized water to make a total of 500 ml. Age one hour, but do not use after 12 hours. Loses activity after that time. For one roll, use a double 35mm tank, with a dummy reel on top. Use only 250 ml developer. Agitation: Vigorous agitation must be avoided or overall density and contrast will increase to an unwanted level. Best method, seems to be to lift the tank from the water bath, invert and continue through 360 degrees, then set tank back in water bath. Do this once each 30 seconds. This will assure each point of the negative getting different developer and will prevent hot spots and streaks.
