Got to Hook Head very late this evening.
Only got a few shots. I love this place and will be heading back here again soon.
Looks great in Black.

A young worker grasps his hook used for picking up waste at the Stung Meanchey landfill in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
The hook on the gantry crane still hangs poised for action in that old factory in Carbondale, Pa.
Seems like you would not want to hang any real weight from it, however. Ot at least not be anywhere underneath if somebody else did. The place is pretty well rotted.
Hook Lighthouse is a unique example of an almost intact medieval lighthouse. It dates from the early 13th century and was a major feat at the time of its construction.
Purpose built as a lighthouse, it has served sailors and shipping for 800 years, apart from a short closure during the 17th century. It is thought to be one of the oldest operational lighthouses in the world. When the Tower of Hook became fully automated in 1996 and no longer needed resident keepers, it was decided to celebrate its uniqueness by opening it to the public.
So Ethan and I got to talking at BrickFair VA 2016 and thought it would be a worth while idea to produce some aftermarket hook hand pieces for vehicle builders.
They Hook had to fall under these categories:
Cheaper Overall Cost per Hook
Available in many colors
Fits LEGO Flex Tube
Let me know if you guys think I should start to produce them.
First of the collection. I always liked these two as no matter how much Hook denies it, they need each other in equal amounts.

I added some blur and desaturation to the background. I admire anyone who has the ability to do this sort of thing...I have no patience!
Hook attachment at construction site in midtown Manhattan. Except for the little stand, this entire apparatus gets connected to the very large crane.
This was taken at 10pm in the evening with the moon being from the same time but taken with a longer lens. The moon is almost at the same spot the real moon was in the picture, but it was much smaller, mainly due to the wide angle (18mm) used for the lighthouse. I have combined the two images in Photoshop.
The Hook Lighthouse, situated at the tip of the Hook Peninsula in County Wexford, in Ireland, is one of the oldest lighthouses in the world. Operated by the Commissioners of Irish Lights, the Irish Lighthouse Authority, the Hook marks the eastern entrance to Waterford Harbour.
The existing tower dates from the twelfth century, though tradition states that Dubhan, a missionary to the Wexford area, established some sort of beacon as early as the 5th century. The exact circumstance of the initial construction on the present structure are the subject of some controversy. It had been thought that the tower was constructed in 1172 by Raymond LeGros as part of his conquests in Ireland, both to establish the lighthouse and to serve as a fortress on the approaches to Waterford. More recent studies, however, have attributed construction to William Marshal before 1231 (Thanks to Susan Hicks). In any case, this tower, in its original form, was 18m high and roughly 8.5m in diameter, with an open fire at the top serving as the beacon. The tower and its grounds was entrusted to the monks, who by then were associated with the Priory of Saint Augustine in Ross. This arrangement continued even through the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII.
Something quite different from my normal photos, a few nights back decided to try photographing fish hooks. I like the contrast between the new and rusty hook.
