Nautical light tower
Revolving flashes of bright white light, direct the course of an ocean vessel so they steer clear of running aground during the night.
This particular lighthouse is located in Lighthouse Park, on the point,
Point Roberts, Whatcom County
Washington USA
A somewhat strange title but it is a 100% translation from Dutch to English. It more a less looks like a tongue.
Another drone shot, taken in Denmark, on the westernmost point of the Island Zealand, the biggest island of Denmark, and the same where Copenhagen is situated. The drone shot here shows the Rösnaes light tower.
The Charlevoix South Pier Light Tower guides boats to the Pine River Channel, which leads to Round Lake of Charlevoix, Michigan. Besides fishermen and private pleasure boats, the main commercial beneficiaries of this lighthouse are the Beaver Island ferries, one of which is the Beaver Islander, shown in the picture.
The Beaver Islander, built by the Sturgeon Bay Shipbuilding Company in 1962, can carry 10 vehicles and 172 passengers to Beaver Island, the largest island in Lake Michigan.

Lighting Structures/Towers above the Cameron University Football Stadium - Lawton, OK
As seen from platform 10 at Richmond Station.
A row of gum trees in the foreground.
2 of the MCG’s 6 light towers on the left and some of Melbourne’s taller buildings in the background.
Scenic framing of a light tower and beacon on a coral reef serving as a navigational aid for boats and ships in the area. Guiding vessels and preventing them from running aground on the reefs.
The water appears calm with subtle ripples, varying shades of blue and turquoise indicating different depths or coral formations beneath the surface. The sky is clear and light-colored representing a fair weather and good visibility.
The presence of a smaller beacon in the background provides a sense of depth and scale, emphasizing the vastness of the seascape. The clear visibility of both light towers indicates good atmospheric conditions.
The overall impression is one of serenity and openness.
Brockton Point Light Station
Stanley Park
Vancouver, B.C.
Canada
A Stanley Park showpiece.
A number of ship collisions in the waters around the point led to the construction of a lighthouse and signaling station at Brockton Point. For a time, Brockton Point had a lighthouse keeper, who served for 25 years starting in 1855 and is credited for having saved 16 people from drowning. The present day lighthouse tower with an automatic light was built in 1914. It was designed by Thomas Hayton Mawson, who also constructed the lifeboat house located below the point and other Stanley Park landmarks.

A picture of Slangkop a while after the sun had set. This was such an interesting experience... We were there for about an hour before the sun set and before the light came on. When it was finally dark enough for the light to start, it started the process by making little green sparkles which grew in intensity until the light was finally casting a beam across the sky in pitch black darkness. This photo was taken somewhere in between these two extremes.
It is another fascinating part of the Cape... there are wooden walkways all along the coast and through the Fynbos. Many people come here for evening strolls or to see the sun set or. It isn't a part of the Cape I had ever visited before and so happy I did this time. The lighthouse can actually be visited during the day, something I will do next time. Amazing sights!
