Point Wilson is a locality located on the northern shores of Corio Bay, Victoria. it is approximately 60 kilometres by road from Melbourne, and 25 kilometres by road from Geelong.
The locality is bounded by Pousties Road to the west, the Princes Freeway to the north west, Little River to the north east, and Corio Bay to the south.
Point Wilson is sparsely populated, and public access to the area is restricted due to the explosives facility located in the area. Other nearby land uses include the Murtcaim Wildlife Area and Melbourne Water's Western Treatment Plant.
I tried microclicks with a Holga at Ft. Zachary Taylor in Key West, Florida. Afterward I took a shot of the southernmost point in the United States.
This was the first time I've done any microclick exposures and I was handholding the camera. The film is Lomography Redscale.
Nash Point Lighthouse was designed and built by
Joseph Nelson being completed in 1832 to mark the
hazardous sandbanks off Nash Point, overlooking
the Bristol Channel. This followed the wrecking of
the passenger steamer Frolic on these sands in 1831,
with a heavy loss of life.
Two circular towers were built, each with massive walls and
a stone gallery. The eastern, or high lighthouse being 37
metres high and the western or low lighthouse 25 metres
high. Placed 302 metres apart they provided leading lights
to indicate safe passage past the sandbanks. The high
light was painted with black and white stripes and the low
light was white. In those days both towers showed a fixed
light which was either red or white depending on the
direction from which a vessel approached. The red sector
marked the Nash Sands.
The low light was abandoned circa 1925 and the high
light was modernised and painted white. In place of the
fixed light a new first order catadioptric lens was installed
which gave a white and red group flashing, this was
removed in the automation of the station and replaced
with a rotating optic. Nash Point Lighthouse was the last
manned lighthouse in Wales. It was automated in 1998
with the keepers leaving for the last time on the 5 August.
The lighthouse is now monitored and controlled from the
Planning Centre at Trinity House in Harwich, Essex.

The battery at Kilkerrin Point was built to defend the Shannon estuary from French invasion during the Napoleonic Wars. The blockhouse was equipped with 2 5.5 inch howitzers on the roof for close in defence of the fort and a battery of 6 24 pounders for bombardment of ships on the river. The forts were built between 1811 and 1816. There were a total of 7 forts built. Carrig island, Foynes and Tarbert on the southern side of the river and Kilcredaun, Scattery Island, Doonaha and Kilkerrin Point to the north.
Point Wilson Lighthouse at Fort Worden State Park, Port Townsend, Washington. Built in 1913 by the United States Lighthouse Service, its height of 51 feet is the tallest in Puget Sound, marking the entrance to Admiralty Inlet. The lighthouse is on the National Register of Historic Places and the Washington State Heritage Register. Still an important navigational aid today, a computer located at the Coast Guard Air Station at Port Angeles monitors the light, which was automated in 1976.
The Point Arena Lighthouse stands tall and proud on the Northern California coast.
A lighthouse on Point Arena has served mariners since 1870.
This lighthouse entered service in 1908, replacing the original 1870 light which was damaged beyond repair in the Great Quake of 1906. While the 1906 quake is usually associated with San Francisco, the epicenter was very close to Point Arena, as the San Andreas Fault runs just east of the lighthouse.
This lighthouse was built of reinforced concrete by a company that specialized in the construction if smokestacks, which is why it looks like one.
I used a KITE to fly the camera.
Simply a stunning sunset at Ricketts point last night. Clouds are reflected in the rockpool.
