I know what you're thinking.
No - I REALLY do.
You obviously know that this is the staircase inside of the monument at High Point, NJ (the one that looks like the Washington Monument).
OK - so what YOU are thinking right now is that, when you were a kid, you climbed all of these stairs and spit your gum out over the edge and it landed right where that man with the camera is lying on the floor taking this photo.
So, to all of you, I would just like to say, "Thanks for really making the time I spent taking this photo EXTRA special!"
The truely funny photo would not be the one of me lying on that filthy floor with my camera. No - it would be the one of the parents grabbing their children by the hand and leading them away from me as far and as fast as they could.
"No, Johnny, he's not dead, he's just had too much to drink. No, you can't poke him with a stick. No, you absolutely can NOT touch him. No, I'm sure that is not his camera - he probably stole it somewhere. We'll call the police when we get outside. Now, hurry!"

Another shot of the Point Betsie Lighthouse near Frankfort MI. This was a 10 minute exposure taken pretty close to midnight. The red light on the inside of the building was very faint, but over time made a great menacing glow.

Point Pinole was the site of the Giant Powder Company, the first US company to purchase Alfred Nobel's invention-dynamite. After disastrous explosions in San Francisco and Albany, the company relocated here in 1892, where it continued manufacturing in heavily protected earthen bunkers as seen here. Giant Powder was purchased by Atlas Powder Company in 1915, which continued operations until 1961. All that remains are a few foundations and the earthen bunkers scattered around the park.

Point Richmond, also known as the Point, is a small neighborhood of Richmond, California, snug up along the coastline between several oil refineries and factories and divided by rail lines that rattle by 24 hours a day. This was the original site of Richmond's establishment, known as East Yards, and acted as Richmond's center until the 1950s. It retains a quiet small-town feel and has a very active neighborhood activism.

I realize that there are already about a billion photos of this lighthouse on Flickr but I feel a need to post mine. This lighthouse is located in Point Fermin park, San Pedro, California.

Point Wilson from the shore below the pile of rocks they have around it to protect. You can get back up with no problem and then you can see the whole lighthouse but this was a different vantage point I enjoyed capturing. Then I played with a bit of painting ...
Oh yeah, this is at Port Townsend in Washington State. Top of the Olympic Peninsula.
"Located 25 miles north of Eureka California, Patrick's Point is a park located in the heart of California's coast redwood country.
The park's dense forests of spruce, hemlock, pine, fir and red alder stretch over an ocean headland with lovely wildflower-festooned meadows.
A dramatic shoreline ranging from broad sandy beaches to sheer cliffs that rise high above the Pacific Ocean offers great opportunities to explore tide pools, search for agates and driftwood, watch whales, sea lions and brilliant sunsets.
The park offers several miles of hiking trails and a recreated Yurok Village"

Lead architect: Rosemary Stjernstedt of the LCC, Ove Arup engineers, 1955. Entrance to a point block of 42 flats in Norley Vale. "The name point block was coined by the Alton East team and is derived from the Swedish punkthus" [source - Grade 2 listing]. The estate's massing and retention of planting from the earlier Victorian villas "epitomises the humanist tradition in post-war British architecture". Roehampton, London Borough of Wandsworth,
