Stratford Point Lighthouse is a historic lighthouse in Stratford, Connecticut, at the mouth of the Housatonic River. The second tower was one of the first prefabricated cylindrical lighthouses in the country and remains active.
The first Stratford Point Lighthouse was built in 1822. In 1855 a fifth order lens was added to the 28-foot wooden tower. In 1881, the tower and dwelling were razed and replaced with a 35-foot tall, brick lined cast-iron tower and equipped with a third order Fresnel lens. The light was automated in 1970 with a modern beacon. It is an active aid to navigation and is used for Coast Guard housing.
Other buildings still standing: 1881 keeper's house, 1911 fog signal building

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,

it had been a long time since i saw a check point at this place, so this one came as a big surprise and a great opportunity for a photoshoot. with permission, so as not to antagonise anyone, i took these series of shots. due to recent incidents involving radicals and terrorist attacks, this check point was organized to control their harmful activities . it could be an inconvenience but for the safety and security of the peacful citizens, it is , in my opinion, as long as it is properly organized and implemented, necessary to have regular check points
This image is the very top section where the actual lighting assembly sits on.
When you are below it, the dimensions are huge so I had to make an image reflecting exactly that.

This is about 6000 ft elevation and just behind those trees is a straight drop - I was to chicken to get any closer to the edge.

When I was in high school, the North Point was either the largest or 2nd largest (after the Coronet) movie theater in San Franicisco. I saw my 1st R-rated film (Alien-- played for 17 weeks starting 5.25.1979) here, and also caught Apocalypse Now (12 weeks starting 09.21.1979) and Empire Strikes Back (played for 28 weeks starting 05.21.1980) here. This was back when everything was 70mm/Dolby. The good ol' days WERE good!
Not only a place that showed movies, the North Point has been IN the movies. The building's exterior is seen in Zodiac when a character catches a viewing of Dirty Harry.

A very nice little secret point up the coast a ways from Santa Barbara. I used to run my boat up here from the Harbor and fish the point and the lee side, nice Halibut and White Sea Bass. I almost always see Dolphin along here...including this day. Part of the mystique of the wild Gaviota Coast. I had hoped for a bit more sunrise color this day, but it never developed. It was still pure magic watching the morning develop here. More to come...
Really needs to be seen LARGE.
