The Point Wilson Lighthouse at Port Townsend, Washington.
This lighthouse was built in 1914, and has served as an active aid to mariners ever since. Its lantern room houses a Fourth Order Fresnel lens.
I used a KITE to fly the camera.

Olmsted Point, located in Yosemite National Park, is a viewing area like Glacier Point that offers an amazing view looking South-West into Yosemite. One is able to see the back side of Half Dome (where people climb the cables) and Tenaya Canyon. To the east you get an elevated view of Tenaya Lake. While not as popular as other viewing areas like Tunnel View & Glacier Point, Olmsted Point is worth the stop.- Wikipedia

Point Lynas Lighthouse is situated on the north coast of Anglesey in North Wales. As early as 1766 the need was felt for a station on Anglesey where ships making for Liverpool could pick up pilots. The Liverpool Pilotage Service, after examining several sites, eventually chose Point Lynas.
There is also an automatic fog detector which starts the fog signal should the visibility drop to less than 2½ miles.

Ever since I saw the new documentary on Harry Nilsson, I haven't been able to stop listening to his music. I even took out my old vinyl copy of his LP, The Point.

Old Point was one of a fleet of crab dredging boats that operated out of Hampton, Virginia, at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay from the 1910s through the 1960s. From December through March, captains and crews lived on their boats so they could leave early every morning and dredge for crabs all day.
In the summer and fall, Old Point carried fish and oysters to packing houses or to market. Old Point’s hull was built the old-fashioned way, hewn from seven pine logs. At that time big logs were hard to get, but watermen still preferred a solid log boat if they could get one.
“[He] had transitions all during the year from fish, to oysters, to crabs. And at the beginning of every season, he would have a sick stomach and throw up for about a week or two.”
-William Carmine remembering his father-in-law, Captain Ernest Bradshaw, owner of Old Point, 2000

This tower at Copt Point is the remaining one of a pair that were constructed in the 1920s to support the crane that was used to build the (now disused) sewage chamber just beyond it. Not as romantic an origin as it might have - but it's a good landmark :-)
