I thought the trail through the grain field to the lighthouse looked pretty good and I liked the shadows here. Very muddy path though as it had rained pretty hard the night before.

Pigeon Point lighthouse is one of the tallest lighthouses in America and the tallest on the west coast. It stands 115 feet and perched on a 35-foot cliff in Pescadero, California. It was built in 1871 and still an active US Coast Guard aid.

Cove Point Light Station is the oldest continuously operated lighthouse on the Chesapeake Bay. Located in Calvert County, Maryland, it's a nice and easy 60 minute jaunt from the D.C. and Baltimore metro areas, and a nice duplex vacation rental property.

Heceta Head is named after the Spanish explorer Bruno de Heceta, who explored the Pacific Northwest during the late 18th century.
Perched on the rugged coastal cliffs of the Pacific Ocean, Heceta Head Lighthouse is a century-old working lighthouse standing 205 ft (62 m) above the ocean. Its lens still casts a beam 21 miles (34 km) out to sea, making it the brightest light on the Oregon Coast.
The Oregon Coast has nine lighthouses on the National Register of Historic Places, and seven are viewable by the public. Just twelve miles north of Florence, the picturesque Heceta Head Lighthouse stands out as probably the most photographed lighthouse among the nine.
Enjoy your Sunday.
Have a wonderful, safe week!
Fisgard Lighthouse Historical Site
Victoria, Vancouver Island, BC
Built November 16, 1860.
- a National Historic Site - The first lighthouse on Canada's west coast is still in operation! There hasn't been a keeper here since the light was automated in 1929, but every year many thousands of visitors step inside a real l9th century light, and capture some of the feeling of ships wrecked and lives saved.
Built by the British in 1860, when Vancouver Island was not yet part of Canada, Fisgard's red brick house and white tower has stood faithfully at the entrance to Esquimalt harbour. Once a beacon for the British Royal Navy's Pacific Squadron, today Fisgard still marks home base for the Royal Canadian Navy.
The waterfront sites at Fisgard Lighthouse and Fort Rodd Hill are extremely photogenic, especially with the scenic backdrop of the Olympic Mountains in neighbouring Washington state.

The Dyrhólaey lighthouse consists of a square concrete tower, painted white with red trim. Integral keepers quarters are placed on the left and right sides of the tower. A red metal lantern house is placed on top of the tower.[2] The focal plane of the light is 118 m (387 ft). The overall height of the tower is 13 m (43 ft). The site (but not the tower) is open to visitors. The light flashes white every 10 seconds
The lighthouse of the Venetian harbor of Rethymno is the second largest remaining Egyptian lighthouse in Crete, after the lighthouse of Chania harbor. It is built on the edge of the old sea wall of Rethymnon and it can be accessed very easily.
The lighthouse we see today was built by the Egyptians during the decade of 1830, when the Turks handed Crete to the Egyptians. Possibly there was an older Venetian lighthouse at the site, just like Chania harbor.
