Viewing sunset over Mount Sustina across Cook Inlet from Point Woronzof Park is a popular summerime activity in Anchorage, Alaska.
Although the sunset occured at 2210 on August 10, there is no true 'night' at this time of year in Anchorage. Just an ever darkening twilight until 0320 when the sun begins to climb higher, reaching the horizon around 0600.
The Tonnara di Scopello dates back to 1200 and is one of the oldest in Sicily. The activity continued until 1984 and every year, on average, about 500 tuna were caught.
The tonnara rises in a magical inlet, framed by steep cliffs and bathed by clear waters. The stacks emerge from the sea a few meters from the shore and make this small gulf even more fascinating.
The tonnara is located in Sicily, in the western part, in the locality of Scopello.
Scopello is a small fraction of the Municipality of Castellammare del Golfo, in the province of Trapani, which has about 400 inhabitants.

La Tonnara di Scopello risale al 1200 ed è una delle più antiche di Sicilia. L’attività è proseguita fino al 1984 e ogni anno, in media, venivano catturati circa 500 tonni.
La tonnara sorge in un’insenatura magica, incorniciata da ripide scogliere e bagnata da acque limpide. I faraglioni sbucano dal mare a pochi metri da riva e rendono ancora più affascinante questo piccolo golfo.
La tonnara si trova in Sicilia, nella parte occidentale, in località Scopello.
Scopello è una piccola frazione del Comune di Castellammare del Golfo, in provincia di Trapani, che conta circa 400 abitanti.
Nothing like wading out through the waves in the dark, getting soaked, carefully treading through the waves to reach the jetty rocks slippery with algae. We went yesterday and I didn't care for the pictures although the fun was topnotch. This morning, despite the forecast, the sunrise was a pretty one. Thanks to Greg and Ash for including me in. None of us, or our equipment, came out worse for wear and it was worth an early wakeup. (Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse)

This is a redux of a previous post from 04.10.2015 “Barnegat Light”
Just doing a few updates. I used the Pixelmator App tools to emphasize some intricate textures and do some lightening/darkening. The old post is still intact. Thanks to so many friends who have stuck with me all this time that I have been on Flickr.
Thanks always for your comments, faves and Group invites !

this inlet heading to a small town call Skagway, you can see the mountain on both side.
這條海峽很像中國的三峽，狹長的伸往一座阿拉斯加的小鎮Skagway.兩岸經常可以看到終年不融化的雪山。
The fog had mostly lifted by the time we hiked down to Tod Inlet on this calm day a couple of months ago. (BC).
The pilings are what is left of a dock that was here, back in the day when the product to make cement was quarried out of the hillside. They now have boxes to house the Purple Martin on them, and are a favorite hang out for the Cormorants.

I don't know when I've seen a prettier day at the inlet than the day I took this photo. The clouds were so low it was almost as if you could reach out and touch them! Everything was perfect, from the color of the water to the color of the sky, and the wonderful shadows that hit the walkway as I sized up the shot just added to it all.
I used an HDR and Orton treatment in post processing to pull up more detail and color, and took out some of the gold tones that were on the walkway to create a little more color contrast.
I'm up late thanks to sleeping in something like 15 hours last night. My good intentions were to sleep and sleep, so I could get well faster, but my body just wouldn't stay in zombie mode to cooperate, so here it is after 3 AM and I'm just about to hit the hay! I do feel a lot better after getting all that rest, and I thank everyone who prayed for me and sent me good thoughts! I see light at the end of the tunnel. Now, to sleep again....Good night!
I think this is the inlet most of the sea water comes through as it covers the salt marsh when there is an extremely high spring tide.
