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.
La Jolla Children's Pool and Point Mencinger (Cape) Circa 1965. The Children's Pool was created by building a seawall to form a protected cove for children to swim in but in recent years sand has filled in much of the area inside the wall and seals and sea lions have been using the beach to rest, reproduce and molt. During much of the year they are present on or near the beach. A reserve for these marine mammals, called Seal Rock, is just offshore.

Been walking the South West Coast Path , Between Westward Ho! and Padstow... This is a view of Hartland Point, Devon, UK.... June 2018
Pigeon Point Lighthouse, one of the tallest on the U.S. West Coast, was built in 1872 to warn ships of the treacherous coast, inspired by the 1853 wreck of the clipper Carrier Pigeon (hence the name) and several subsequent deadly shipwrecks, including the Coya. Now an active Coast Guard aid, the lighthouse tower is undergoing major restoration but still functions, while the keeper's quarters serve as a hostel, making it a historic landmark rich in maritime history and natural beauty.
Out with the Focus crew down to Little Austi (just north of Austinmer) on a rock shelf called Brickyard Point. The headland in the background is Bells Point. A rising tide and a 1.5m swell gave these consistent waterfalls into the channel. Lots of time to work on different comps which is unusual.

There are some beautiful trees along the Rim Trail near Lipan Point at the Grand Canyon. The park is currently closed as a result of the pandemic but will be doing a phased re-opening soon.
Happy Tree-mendous Tuesday!
444 W Lake Street Chicago IL
River Point, previously known as 200 North Riverside Plaza, is a 52 story 730 ft. tall skyscraper in Chicago, Illinois, located at 444 West Lake Street. The 52-story building has 1,000,000 sq ft of floor space. It sits on air rights above active railroad tracks and as well the subway portion of the CTA Blue Line, which affected the angle of some support columns, which in turn produced the parabolic arch in the base of the building.
29 September 2019: Sunset at Vista Point overlooking Chimney Rock and Courthouse Mountain in the Uncompahgre Wilderness of Colorado.
As the sun begins to set, colors slowly seep into the clouds above Heritage Park. A life-size museum reflecting times 100 years ago, the park's oil derrick points toward the sky marking the end of another day.
Shot at twilight from Point Molate Beach Park. I was pleasantly surprised to find a nice park here on Pt. Molate with great views of Mt Tamalpais and San Pablo Bay. It's nice to see we have some clean open space here. Bravo!
Thank you to everybody that views, comments and for favouring my images. Always greatly appreciated.
Ka’ena Point, the northwestern most tip of the Hawaiian island of O’ahu, is to my back here. This smallish triangle of land at the point of the island is fenced off to protect the Laysan albatross nesting colony in front of me from predators that would raid their nests and eat their eggs.
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.
As we were taking off from Martin State Airport, we had a nice view of Wilson Point there that sticks out towards the Chesapeake Bay. I marked on the photo where my Dad's house is located. Also marked some other features in the photo like downtown Baltimore, etc.
Just about all the homes there on the end of Wilson Point ended up with water in them when Hurricane Isabel came up the East Coast. You can see how easily that thin peninsula does not provide a lot of protection from water being blown in from across the large bay.
Split Point lighthouse, Victoria, Australia. I wanted a very different image from when I visited 19 years previously:

Wanted to share with you, my sweet cat Bebe lying on my tredmill, I think he's missing the point of a tredmill, lol =) I miss him so much, wish he was still here!
Spent a few weeks out on Nantucket this summer and was lucky enough to get some nice shots of the lighthouse and the stars.
These female Tule elk and their offspring were seen in a Tule elk refuge location in Point Reyes National Seashore, California.
It was a foggy day, so it helped photographically to get fairly close to these beautiful creatures.
The map location is only very approximate, as I was taken to this location by a guide.

The Point Bonita Lighthouse was first lit on May 2, 1855. Lens: Fixed, second-order Fresnel purchased from Paris for $7,000. First fog signal used on the U.S. West Coast was at Point Bonita. An Army-surplus, eight-foot long, 24-pounder siege gun from the Benicia Arsenal.

Hiking above Dana Point I saw the striking formation of the harbor entrance. Looks like a well protected little beach on the right. What a beautiful place to live now. Tons of hiking trails to explore, restaurants to visit..all within walking distance. Oh, and there are more dolphins here than anywhere else in the world!
