We love the Sunshine Coast as it has long stretches of beautiful beaches. That bulk carrier offshore was waiting for the pilot to guide it into the Port of Brisbane, while the lifeguards were completing their afternoon training session in the surf, and we were waiting till it was time to go to our seafood restaurant for the evening.
The Point Reyes is a "ship wrecked" fishing vessel in Inverness, CA. Very popular subject of photographers.
Looking at one of the two points from the fractured lava flow on the other point at Iona's Beach Scientific and Natural Area (SNA) on Lake Superior, north of Two Harbors, Minnesota.
Once upon a time, this place was once the site of a charming mom & pop resort called Twin Points Resort. Iona Lind, her husband John and their children ran the resort for over 50 years. Iona kept on for a short time after her husband passed away in the 1980's.
When Iona died, she donated the land and it ended up in the hands of Minnesota's DNR.
Iona's Beach SNA is about halfway between Gooseberry Falls and Split Rock Lighthouse State Parks on Minnesota's legendary, historic Highway 61.
This was probably taken a year ago. It is an american gated community on Canadian soil. Go figure. You must get permission at the gate to go to the lighthouse on foot or bike. I have been wanting for years to see this. It is fabulous. You can see Buffalo from this spot, albeit not in this image.
Take care my friendly Flickeroos.
A Montreal landmark is Windmill Point which juts out into Lac St. Louis and includes an old Windmill and a Monastery. It is a favourite place for artists to sketch, paint, photograph or just visit along the West Island area of Montreal, both in summer and winter. It is located in the old Village of Pointe Claire.
The Point Vicente Lighthouse was built in 1926 marking the north end of the treacherous Catalina Channel on the Pacific coast to warn mariners of rocky reefs along shoreline cliffs. Catalina Island in the background.
The original lighthouse at Point Wilson was built in 1879. The current structure was completed in 1904 and equipped with a fourth order Fresnel lens. It is located within the boundries of Fort Worden State Park near Port Townsend, Jefferson County, Washington and is maintained by the US Coast Guard. It was added to the National Resgister of Historic Places in 1971.
Did another processing on this picture/view. The first one's a little bit on the harsher side of hdr. Happy Friday!
The rear DPU on B65111 crosses over the trestle at Pool Point. In a couple miles, they'll hold for a work window at Towers.

Taken from the South West Coast path looking across Tregirls beach towards Hawkers Cove, just as the early morning mist was starting to clear. Through the mist you can just make out the white coast watch station and the Stepper Point daymark, which is where we eventually ended up.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
The iconic Nugget Point (or 'The Nuggets' as referred to by the locals) is located near Kaka Point. There is a car park area from where you commence your walk to the Nugget Point Lighthouse. Wave-eroded rocks, which are likened to the shape of gold nuggets, can be seen from the viewing platform at the end of the path.
