An early posting of this Bee Fly for FDF, I'm not gonna be around for the next week or so. I'll try my best to view some of your wonderful images, but please excuse the lack of comments, but i'll do my best. ;0)
Le phare de la Vieille est un phare maritime du Finistère (France) construit de 1882 à 1887 sur le rocher de Gorlebella (« la roche la plus éloignée » en breton).
Il éclaire et sécurise fortement le passage dangereux du raz de Sein, de concert avec la tourelle de la Plate (cardinale ouest). Il est situé dans le raz de Sein à moins d'un mille marin à l'ouest de la pointe du Raz

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.

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 shot captures the star light of the Island the Point Prim Lighthouse the oldest lighthouse on PEI, built in 1845 and has been standing guard over the Charlottetown harbour ever since. Point Prim not only has the distinction of being the oldest in PEI but also one of the rarest in the country being one of only two brick cylindrical lighthouses in Canada. The Lighthouse stands 60 feet high and has been sheathed in cedar shingles over its brick interior almost from the time of its construction it has served as a guardian of mariners, a symbol of PEI, a tourist attraction, as well as a favorite picnic spot for the locals.

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.

Shot at twilight from Point Molate Beach Park. I was pleasantly surprised to find a nice park here on Pt. Molate with great views of Mt Tamalpais and San Pablo Bay. It's nice to see we have some clean open space here. Bravo!
Peveril Point is a promontory on the east-facing coast of the Isle of Purbeck in Dorset, England, and is part of the town of Swanage. It forms the southern end of Swanage Bay. It is located at 50°36.43′N 01°56.69′WCoordinates: 50°36.43′N 01°56.69′W OS Grid Ref: SZ 041 787.
The rocks that make up Peveril Point are shale and Portland and Purbeck limestone in a syncline structure. This has resisted erosion more than the adjacent clay of Swanage Bay; whilst the clay has eroded away over time, the limestone has remained as a promontory.
On top of Peveril Point is a National Coastwatch Institution Lookout. The point is also home to the Swanage lifeboat organisation.[1]
Peveril Point contains underground tunnels connecting disused gun emplacements which defended the entrance to Southampton Water from the west of the Isle of Wight during World War II.
