Split Point lighthouse, Victoria, Australia. I wanted a very different image from when I visited 19 years previously:

POINT OF AYRE
ILE DE MAN
The main light at Point of Ayre was established in 1818, but some 70 years later it was found necessary to build an additional small light tower some 250 yards seaward from the main tower. Due to continuous gravel build-up, this tower moved a further 250ft seaward in 1951, and now stands out on the gravel bank. This light is referred to as the "Winkie".
Le phare principal de Point of Ayre a été établi en 1818, mais quelque 70 ans plus tard, il a été jugé nécessaire de construire une petite tour de phare supplémentaire à environ 250 mètres au large de la tour principale. En raison de l'accumulation continue de gravier, cette tour s'est déplacée de 250 pieds supplémentaires vers la mer en 1951 et se distingue maintenant sur le banc de gravier. Cette lumière est appelée "Winkie".

Out with the Focus crew down to Little Austi (just north of Austinmer) on a rock shelf called Brickyard Point. The headland in the background is Bells Point. A rising tide and a 1.5m swell gave these consistent waterfalls into the channel. Lots of time to work on different comps which is unusual.

Pigeon Point Lighthouse, one of the tallest on the U.S. West Coast, was built in 1872 to warn ships of the treacherous coast, inspired by the 1853 wreck of the clipper Carrier Pigeon (hence the name) and several subsequent deadly shipwrecks, including the Coya. Now an active Coast Guard aid, the lighthouse tower is undergoing major restoration but still functions, while the keeper's quarters serve as a hostel, making it a historic landmark rich in maritime history and natural beauty.

River Point, previously known as 200 North Riverside Plaza, is a 52 story 730 ft. tall skyscraper in Chicago, Illinois, located at 444 West Lake Street. The 52-story building has 1,000,000 sq ft of floor space. It sits on air rights above active railroad tracks and as well the subway portion of the CTA Blue Line, which affected the angle of some support columns, which in turn produced the parabolic arch in the base of the building.
This Common redshank reminded me on a ballet dancer, just started the Pointe technique - all weight only on the toes with all this special easiness and elegance only a talented ballet dancer could have
The iconic Nugget Point (or 'The Nuggets' as referred to by the locals) is located near Kaka Point. There is a car park area from where you commence your walk to the Nugget Point Lighthouse. Wave-eroded rocks, which are likened to the shape of gold nuggets, can be seen from the viewing platform at the end of the path.
As we were taking off from Martin State Airport, we had a nice view of Wilson Point there that sticks out towards the Chesapeake Bay. I marked on the photo where my Dad's house is located. Also marked some other features in the photo like downtown Baltimore, etc.
Just about all the homes there on the end of Wilson Point ended up with water in them when Hurricane Isabel came up the East Coast. You can see how easily that thin peninsula does not provide a lot of protection from water being blown in from across the large bay.
Point Betsie Light is located on the northeast shore of Lake Michigan — at the southern entrance to the Manitou Passage — north of Frankfort in Benzie County in Northern Michigan. Construction began in 1854, but it was not completed until 1858, and began service in the shipping season of 1859.
The name Point Betsie originates from the Native American people who were in the area and communicating with the French at the time. The French "Pointe Aux Bec Scies" comes from the Indigenous word "Ug-Zig-A-Zee-Bee" which People of the Three Fires [Tribal] Council gave to a river flowing into Lake Michigan just a few miles to the south, where sawbill or Merganser ducks thrived. Translated, Point Betsie means Saw Beak Point.

I visited the South West part of Cornwall and made several hikes over the South West Coast Path. This picture is taken at the Godrevy Point. These little flowers give colour to the rugged coastline and untamed wildness of the cliffs and sea. Cornwall, 2026.
