Point Wild, Elephant Island 2015.
It was here that Frank Wild, the forgotten hero of Shackleton’s 1915 expedition, survived in charge of 21 men on a diet of seal, penguin and seaweed. After his heroic exploit Shackleton returned to rescue the men over 120 days later.
We attempted a landing but it was too windy.
Fort Point is a formerly industrial area across Fort Point Channel from Boston's Financial District. It appears to be mostly lofts now.

Point Cabrillo is named after the Spanish explorer Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo, although Cabrillo's voyage of exploration along the California coast did not reach as far north as the point.
Point Cabrillo Lighthouse was established in 1909, displaying a 3rd Order Standard Lens and Air Sirens. It is located about 1.5 miles south of Fort Bragg, California. With the exception of a small barn, all original buildings stand unaltered. In 1935, an air diaphone supertyfone sound signal was installed. The United States Coast Guard manned the station until 1973, when the lens was covered and a modern rotating beacon was mounted on a metal stand on the roof west of the lantern room. In 1991 the light station was added to the National Register of Historic Places. It has been a California State Park since 2002.

The Maryland Department of Natural Resources dedicated a half-mile trail loop at North Point State Park in honor of a former public servant and avid bicyclist, Steven L. Kreseski.
A native and resident of Baltimore City, Kreseski served three years as chief of staff for former Governor Robert Ehrlich Jr. and was his legislative director on Capitol Hill from 1995 to 2003. Kreseski passed away in 2015 at the age of 58 from pulmonary fibrosis, a hereditary lung disease.
"Following overland tests at Salisbury Plain during March 1897, on May 13, the Italian born and recently British based inventor, best known for his development of a radiotelegraph system, Guglielmo Marconi, assisted by George Kemp (who was a Cardiff based Post Office engineer) transmitted and received the first wireless signals over open sea from Lavernock Point to Flat Holm island. The very first message transmitted in morse code was "ARE YOU READY". This was immediately followed by "CAN YOU HEAR ME" to which the reply was "YES LOUD AND CLEAR".
The initial tests were so successful over the three and a third mile (6 kilometres) stretch of water that it was quickly decided to relocate the telegraph equipment from Flat Holm to Brean Down Fort, near Weston Super Mare increasing the distance to nearly ten miles (16 kilometres) from the Lavernock Point transmitter.
Following these successful trials, Marconi subsequently vested his new patent rights in his 'Wireless Telegraph and Signal Company'.
On the point in the late 1860s Lavernock Fort gun battery was built by the Royal Commission and completed in 1870, with three 7" muzzle loading cannons to protect the channel approaches to Cardiff and Bristol shipyards during the short lived war between Britain and France that followed the French Revolution. Sometime before 1895 the gun battery was reinforced with a fourth cannon only for all four guns to be replaced eight years later by two rapid fire six inch former naval guns in 1903. A two unit searchlight battery was added during the Second World War. Today the remaining main section of the gun battery has been listed as an Ancient Monument, which includes the gun emplacements, director-rangefinder observation position, crew and officers quarters."
One foggy July night at Point Cabrillo. Thanks to the fog I was able to get many great shots of the beams at night. It is quite the experience to see them in person!
