South Stack Lighthouse was first envisaged in 1665 when a petition to erect the lighthouse was presented to Charles II. Permission was not granted and it was not until 9 February 1809 that the first light appeared to mark the rock marking a tiny islet off Anglesey at the north west tip of Wales.
The lighthouse was designed by Trinity House surveyor Daniel Alexander and originally fitted with Argand oil lamps and reflectors. Around 1840 a railway was installed by means of which a lantern with a subsidiary light could be lowered down the cliff to sea level when fog obscured the main light.
In the mid 1870s the lantern and lighting apparatus was replaced by a new lantern. In 1909 an early form of incandescent light was installed and in 1927 this was replaced by a more modern form of incandescent mantle burner. The station was electrified in 1938.

Height of light above Mean High Water: 60 m
The historic South Stack Lighthouse is located on a small island reached via a descent of 400 steps down the steep mainland cliffs. South Stack Rock lies separated from Holyhead Island by 30 metres of turbulent sea, surging to and fro in continuous motion. The coastline from the breakwater and around the south western shore is made of large granite cliffs rising sheer from the sea.

A lenticular cloud glows with the dawn light above Green Mountain and the Flatiron formation in Boulder Colorado. Technically known as “Altocumulus Standing Lenticular” these clouds form when air is forced up by mountains oriented perpindicularly to the flowing wind. At the crest of their movement clouds will form if there is sufficient moisture, shaped like flying saucers or pancakes, reflecting the gravitational spread of the deflected air. I’m unsure what causes the stacking that we see here. While the cloud appears stationary, the air is moving very quickly. The shape may change with time as the wind velocity changes. This cloud elongated after I took this photo (see future posts and link listed below).
While it looks like I’ve gotten carried away with the saturation and vibrance sliders, I’ve actually toned this down a bit. If you visit this link and input the date as Feb 6, 2016, starting at 6:45 am and ending at 7:30 am, you can see just how bright this cloud became, and watch the shape change with time. (#2)

The stacks off the coast of Vik in southern Iceland are very picturesque. I used a big zoom to try to capture the power of the massive waves breaking on the beach.
The South Stack Lighthouse is built on the summit of a small island off the north-west coast of Holy Island, Anglesey, Wales UK. It was built in 1809 to warn ships of the dangerous rocks below.

camera fv 5, camera app for android, is used which i found to be the best when it comes to the manual controls.. with some limitations of course.
in long exposure mode, maximum res available is 0.9 pixel which is 10 % of the actual camera power.

NEX-6 + Meyer Trioplan 1:3.5 F = 2,5cm (1933; Minifex)
The Trioplan 25/3.5 was used on the subminiature Minifex, a camera made in the 1930s by Fotofex Kameras in Berlin. The camera took 36 13x18mm photos on special 16mm film. Surprisingly, the lens has no problem with the APS-C sensor.

This is the first time I've done a focus stack that hasn't involved a macro lens and tiny fungi or lichen, but I really liked this moss covered root reaching out to the world and I happened to have my tripod with me for once, so I thought I'd give it a quick go. It was too cold to hang around for long though.
For Iron Photographer 238 where the elements are
1 - a stack of three things
2 - one red thing
3 - cinematic aspect ratio
Hope I've got this correct having my red thing atop the stack of three things?

I used this interesting light conditions to picture the stacked wood. It was littered with a beatufil cutting-pattern.
I walked through there on a little hiking tour across the beautiful forrest of the "Goldene Stiege" at Mödling near Vienna.

Stacked rocks in Iceland. Not sure exactly where this tourist "fad" started, but we saw them several places in Iceland. On the good side, at least in this case, the Icelandic environment can be "harsh", and the lifespan of a stack itself could probably be measured in days. Maybe hours.
Either way, I thought it made for a good picture.
Photo of the stacks of the main branch of the Carnegie Library in Pittsburgh, through what used to be exterior windows. (The library was opened in 1898.)
This photo was taken from the Carnegie Museum of Natural History's dinosaur exhibit room.
Note that the ceilings here (and the floors of each story above them) are made from very thick greenish frosted glass which allows the light from each floor above to help light the floor below. The two lower-right windows show some of the large double-sided bookcases.
The windows have window seats where two patrons seem to be hanging out, away from the action in the main part of the library.
