This narrow paved trail heads up the hill to the Point Sutr Light Station. It's a little over 345 feet in elevation in about a 1.5 mile hike.
A thick layer of cloud towered over the western horizon, leaving a cold, windy and misty shoreline once the sun had set. This photograph is of the Point Arena Lighthouse, just north of downtown Point Arena, CA, and was taken on our way back from Redwood Nat'l Park and Del Norte and Humboldt Counties in Northern California. Single RAW exposure with 3 stop ND filter. Slight level adjustments in Photoshop CS3.

Whilst wandering the mangroves at Tenby Point last weekend, I came across another less photographed jetty remnant at Tenby Point. Compared to its larger cousin it is very small but nonetheless made an interesting little subject in its own right.

A field of pumpkins grows on the fertile marine terrace near Pigeon Point. Originally called La Punta De La Ballena (Whale Point), its name was later changed to commemorate the wreck of the American clipper ship Carrier Pigeon in 1853. The magnificent lighthouse has guided travelers between Santa Cruz and Half Moon Bay since1872.

Note the dipping limestone pavement, just like Cressy Lakeside. Beautiful, subtle geology in Prince Edward County.

This was based on a render I found on the web many years ago and I fell in love with the architecture so I saved it but sadly I can’t find the source anymore to give due credit.
Souter piont. After a really wet day yesterday the next morning looked quite promising for a sunrise photo. I decided to go to Souter Point, south end of Jackies beach, Whitburn, to see what I could conjure up. I'm lacking inspiration at the moment, so I struggled with a composition. Using the beach peebles as a lead in I've focus stacked to get the cliff in the background sharper.

If you look at the marble close enough, you might actually see the mess I made in our dining room when I shot this. :)

I think this was worth the wet shoes, socks and pants. Next time I'll bring my waders. Used a two stop reverse gradient neutral density filter.
Pigeon Point Lighthouse is a lighthouse built in 1871 to aid ships sailing along the rocky Northern California coast heading in to San Francisco Bay after a number of ships, most notably the Carrier Pigeon for which the lighthouse is named, sank on the shallow rocks just off shore. It is the tallest of the lighthouses in California and along the western cost of the United States standing at 115 feet (35 Meters). It's proximity to San Francisco, easy access from historic California Highway One and the remarkable scenery surrounding the Lighthouse makes it the most popular and picturesque lighthouse along the entire Pacific Coast. The first-order Fresnel lens which illuminated the New England style tower with 24 beams of light has currently been removed while the upper portion of the tower undergoes restoration. The lighthouse still functions with a smaller Coast Guard Beacon mounted on the exterior of the lighthouse.
Upon our arrival the entire area was covered in cloud when finally the sun broke from beneath the clouds at just the right angle to create a glow on the clouds above while still illuminating the lighthouse, rocks and breaking waves. The deep orange hues of the setting sun caused the red rock and fence to almost glow in red light. Yet there was still enough white light to bring out the blue waves below. This didn't last very long and scenery was constantly changing causing us to dash around the lighthouse to try and get the best angle on the ever-changing light. Days like these are hard to come by. The lighthouse is usually covered by fog or in stunningly clear
skies. But every so often, you get one of the most spectacular sunsets you will witness as the sun slips below the horizon of the Pacific.
No, those are not specks of dust to the right of the lighthouse, but seagulls and pelicans soaring high above the cliffs in a light ocean breeze. They show up nicely in the full 36Mpixel version. The green just below the lighthouse is actually ice plant that hangs from the rocky bluffs like
brilliant green and red curtains. I wish I could do more than just describe the soft smell of the salt air, the sound of the waves breaking on the rocks below in order to make the scene inclusive.
