"Thelma & Louise Point" on the Colorado River from the "Potash Road" below Dead Horse Point State Park, Utah USA.
This is where "Thelma and Louise" drove their car off the cliff at the end of the movie of the same name.
This is accessed from Utah Highway 279 along the Colorado River northwest of Moab, Utah. This road becomes the "Potash Road" that weaves through the colorful potash ponds and eventually ends up in Canyonlands National Park as the "Shafer Trail".

Coppermine Point Lighthouse was orginally located, 3 kilometers away, at Coppermine Point, Batchawana Bay. The wooden pyramidal lighthouse was built in 1910 and deactivated in 1969. Subsequently, it was moved to its present location overlooking Hibbard Bay / Lake Superior, as part of a restaurant- -the restaurant failed, the lighthouse abandoned and allowed to decay.

Made it back to High Point State Park last month and was lucky to have some interesting skies to work with.
The monument is located on the highest point in the state of New Jersey and offers some really beautiful views. It also means that it can be pretty windy and the clouds were scudding by at a decent clip.
Standing there looking up at the monument with the clouds moving behind it makes your head spin a bit. Good times! :)

(105/366) HFF! Almost the half way point of my regular(ish) 3 mile walk up the lane & back. Meelin village in the distance is the highest village in Ireland. If you zoom in you can see the priest's house behind the church & Meelin Hil behind that. When the children went to the National school (the long building on the left) I would park by the church & walk up that hill every weekday. The views are amazing, you can see all the way over to the Paps mountains in Kerry & beyond.
One day soon when the weather is a bit brighter I will continue on & do the 5 mile looped walk through Meelin & back down a different lane to home. The clouds looked a bit ominous yesterday so I turned around & headed back down the way I'd come
Also for my new group Gorgeous Golden Gorse for all your Gorse photos. New members welcome.

View from Clark Quay, Singapore. Riverside Point is one of the numerous shopping malls located along the river. This was taken in the early morning. You can see my shadow reflected!
Have a nice week end dear friends!
Sun Point provides a remarkable view across St. Mary Lake to the impressive peaks along it's NW shore.

Thanks for your comments and suggestions.
Happy Friday!
Mission Point Lighthouse, standing proudly at the tip of Old Mission Peninsula in Traverse City, Michigan. 🌊️
On this visit, I was struck by how low the water level was in West Grand Traverse Bay. In past trips, these rocks were almost completely submerged! After looking into it, I learned the lower levels are due to a mix of increased evaporation, decreased precipitation, and less snowmelt.
It was a different view than I’ve seen before—and it gave me the chance to capture some unique images of this iconic lighthouse.

Point d'Esny wetlands, Mauritius.
This place is supposed to be a Ramsar site but other than a lone whimbrel and a lone striated heron it was devoid of birds. It is covered in mangroves so it might be the birds are hidden.

A Brief History of the Point Reyes Lighthouse
The Point Reyes Headlands jut 10 miles (16 km) out to sea and pose a threat to ships traveling between San Francisco Bay and locations to the north. The historic Point Reyes Lighthouse was built in 1870 to warn mariners of this navigational hazard and served for 105 years. The Point Reyes Lighthouse was retired from service in 1975 when the U.S. Coast Guard installed an automated light adjacent and below the historic tower. The Coast Guard then transferred ownership of the lighthouse to the National Park Service, which has taken on the job of preserving this fine specimen of our maritime heritage.
The rocks at North Point are so interesting to photograph. Morro Bay's insane sunsets only add to the drama. Just remember to watch out for the tides or you and your camera will get wet.
Although this is not an HDR image, I used 32-bit processing and Nik fliters to achieve the final result.
Taking in the view of the badlands at Zabriskie Point in Death Valley National Park was one of my favorite experiences in the park. The eroded shapes of the badlands are really interesting and I feel like I could photograph there all day long.

Point Sur Lightstation is a lighthouse at Point Sur, California, 135 miles (217 km) south of San Francisco, on the 361-foot (110 m)-tall rock at the head of the point. It was established in 1889 and is part of Point Sur State Historic Park. The light house is 40 feet (12 m) tall and 270 feet (82 m) above sea level. As of 2015, the light was still in operation as an aid to navigation.
The Point Bonita Lighthouse was built in 1855 to mark the entrance of the San Francisco Bay for Sailors coming from the South. Read more about it here. See location here.
So after I walked through the tunnel shown in my previous picture, I continued like 1/4 mile and this is the view of the deteriorating bridge and lighthouse. I would love to go back and experience the view in a clear summer day. The view must be spectacular. All I saw was fog during my short visit! :(
TGIF!
NOTE:
-NO HDR, one photo.
-I processed this photo with LR and I simply used a LR preset called "Focus: Dramatic sky" *FREE*
-It was a very cloudy/foggy day when I took this picture.
- I just installed the newest Adobe Creative Suite 4 Master Collection. Everything looks so different. I am lost! :)
