Some time ago I was hired to handle a shoot for the folks of Silo Point. They had 5 furnished models they wanted photographed for sales needs. These are a couple of the more "candid" shots of those units, edited in an appropriately stylized fashion.
The property itself was built out of the shell of what used to be Baltimore's old B&O Grain Elevator, a popular abandonment of maybe a decade ago. While I typically decry the deaths of such gorgeous industrial structures, the way this particular one was rejuvenated into such a spectacular building is amazing. Aside from the spaces themselves being gorgeously well developed and furnished, the heritage of the building's history was well maintained in the retention of much of the original concrete infrastructure and use of old gears and ironwork being fashioned into the aesthetic appeal of the building.
Certainly looking forward to working with these folks again. What they achieved with the landmark is nothing short of incredible.
I finally made it out to Fifty Point for sunrise. Today was my first time there, but I'm sure it won't be my last!

This is another of a series of images taken at nearby Fifty Point Conservation Area, roughly midway between Grimsby and Hamilton, Ontario on the South shore of Lake Ontario. The evening was particularly calm and in combination with the subtle colours of the dusk period provided a near ideal opportunity to photograph the pilings located along the conservation area's beach. - JW
This image was taken using a tripod-mounted Nikon D5000 fitted with a Nikkor 18-105mm VR lense set to 24mm, ISO200, Aperture priority mode, f/11.0, 1/25 sec with an exposure bias of EV-0.67 to hold the colours in the water and along the horizon. PP in GIMP: load 2 copies of the image into GIMP as layers, the top one named water and the bottom one named pilings and add alpha channels to each to allow erasure to transparency. Perform a minor tone curve adjustment to the top 'water' layer to optimize (IMHO) the colours and overall tonality, then edit the lower 'pilings' layer to brighten up the darker pilings until they looked appropriate, use a large soft-edged eraser brush to delete the pilings from the top 'water' layer and reveal the good pilings in the layer below, flatten the image, apply some additional tone curve adjustments to optimize the overall tonal range, boost overall saturation slightly, sharpen, add bars and text, scale to 1024 wide for posting.

Here is another shot from Eastern Point. I am so glad I got to visit this area while I was back East. I never though the East would have a coast like I get out here, not sure why I thought that. Just means I will have to make some more trips out that way and see what else I can find.

The Point Bonita lighthouse sits on the tip of Marin County near the entrance to the Golden Gate Bridge
At the peak of Cape Point are two lighthouses. The main one sits atop the highest point were as a smaller one sits down closer to the water and the actually furthest point of the Cape.
This trail is a side trail that I don't think many know about or just don't want to walk down. It does actually give you access to the lower lighthouse, though I didn't actually make it down that far (I regret that now). The scene though, as you can see here is breathtaking...

Kauhola Point Lighthouse in Hawi, a former sugar mill town. As the sugar industry in Hawaii began to collapse in the early 70s, Kohala Sugar Mill announced it was closing it doors, putting about 500 employees out of work. The town survived and today thrives as an art community and tourist trap. Almost all of the remnants of the mill, just west of the lighthouse, are gone.
