Portland Bill Lighthouse in Dorset in the UK, a bright sunny day, I thought the panorama format with the longer exposure allows the Lighthouse to sit in the picture without taking over. Also I like the wave on the left as it adds a bit of interest to the sea.
The quaint bridge in Portland, Michigan passes over the Grand River. Portland is known as the city of two rivers; they are the Looking Glass River and the Grand River. This bridge is one of the largest (as a two-span example) and most complete examples of a rather ornate bridge plan/design that Groton Bridge and Manufacturing Company of Groton, NY built that remain today. As such it is significant on a national level as a key example of the work of an important bridge company. The bridge has been listed as a Michigan Historic Civil Engineering Landmark.
This bridge is a two-span pin connected Pratt through truss.

The most photographed lighthouse in the United States. You can see why, so picturesque. So, mine is not the prettiest nor one of a few .. but it is my encounter on this beautiful night along with my own glorious sunset view. :)
Portland Head Light is a historic lighthouse in Cape Elizabeth, Maine. The light station sits on a head of land at the entrance of the primary shipping channel into Portland Harbor, which is within Casco Bay in the Gulf of Maine. Completed in 1791, it is the oldest lighthouse in the state of Maine. The light station is automated, and the tower, beacon, and foghorn are maintained by the United States Coast Guard, while the former lighthouse keepers' house is a maritime museum within Fort Williams Park.
