A deserted Neist Point on a cold Winters day at sunset.
If you fall in the water here, there is no one to save you, even the lighthouse is automated, makes you think twice before going to close to the cliffs!

A little info:
The current Thomas Point light is arguably the most widely recognized lighthouse in Maryland and is the only screw-pile light on the Chesapeake Bay still in its original location. (The remaining 3 have been moved to museum settings.) It is the third light to mark Thomas point shoal.

Another shot of Tom Waits performing at Edinburgh Playhouse in July of last year as part of his 'Glitter and Doom' tour..
As I have previously mentioned, I came home from a weekend away to find an invitation to photograph this gig for The Scotsman...but only read the e-mail about 35 minutes before I needed to be there. It was all very exciting. :-)
My invitation came from Alex Hewitt at The Scotsman (to whom my thanks have so often been due).
You can see the shot The Scotsman published here:
You can see my other posted pics from this gig in my Tom Waits set.
There is 1.5 km walk up on the foresty road to the Lighthouse.
Seal Rocks, NSW
Sugarloaf Point Lighthouse also known as Seal Rocks Lighthouse is an active light tower that has been operating since December 1875. It was built to stand guard over the rugged and pointy Seal Rocks and Sawtooth Rocks as these were unsuitable to build a lighthouse on. The elegant light tower is one of only two light towers in Australia with an external stairway, and has been automated by electricity since 1987.
Another lovely lighthouse we found along the Great Ocean road.Split point lighthouse at Aireys Inlet , Victoria Australia.

On the east side of PEI along the Northumberland Strait. Between Nova Scotia and PEI, you can go nuts taking fotos of lighthouses. If you don't, your spouse will!! lol
Cheers Ant for the heads-up about this spot, well worth many more visits I reckon!
We had some nice wispy clouds about today which was a relief after seeing only clear skies on the way down to Potter Point this morning. Turned out to be a really nice sunrise.
I've included Ant working his magic in this shot so you can appreciate the scale of this area.
Cheers
