From atop Hawk Hill in Marin Headlands is an overlook of Point Bonita. Typically, the summer months are foggy and misty, obscuring this lovely view. Thankfully, the fog receded to the horizon for this photo-opportunity.
This image was taken with a Mamiya 645 ProTL using Fuji Pro NS 160 film, scanned by an HP Scanjet G4050 and digitally rendered with Photoshop.

Me and Jen just got back from a week break in the Scottish highlands. We spent most of the time at Chanonry Point, standing for hours in the sideways rain not seeing any dolphins
One early morning we walked onto the beach and accidentally startled this hare. Instead of just running left or right along the beach, It decided that the safest option was to tombstone straight into the Moray Firth and swim out about 50 feet into a raging torrent 😳. We couldn't believe what we were both seeing! Straight away we both ran back out of its sight hoping it would swim back in but instead we watched it slowly drifting away in the current, getting weaker and weaker... I was on the verge of getting ready to swim out and save it when it suddenly managed to get itself back onto dry land. It had a moment to regain some composure until a herring gull started attacking it and it then ran past us back towards the golf course and under cover.

Day 6 : I stayed quite late photographing Monument Valley by night. What was planned was sleeping in my SUV near Muley Point. But I found a cheap motel in Mexican Hat (38$ the night), so I slept in a warm bed and took a good shower the following day. That was worth it! I was in perfect shape to start a new day, especially I had 2 parks in the agenda : Arches and Canyonlands!

With its commanding view of Haro Strait and the Canadian Gulf Islands, Turn Point offers wonderful opportunities for photographers and visitors who appreciate nature and history. The nearby Canadian and Olympic Mountains provide wonderful scenic backdrops to this special area. The Turn Point Light Station, built in 1893, stands on the western most end of Stuart Island, providing light and reference to mariners of the Salish Sea.

JimFlix gave me the idea to paddle the entire length of the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Leg two of my mission started at the Empire Beach, and ended at the Point Betsie Light. The hot August sun, and the cold Lake Michigan water created hazy conditions that made the horizon nearly disappear.
The little one room school on the Harn Homestead.
This is what the sign said outside of the school
Education was a primary concern of the new Oklahomans and within six weeks of the land run, Oklahoma City boasted a school house. School buildings also served as churches, social centers, and polling places.
Stoney Point School was built in 1897 and located near present day Rose Hill Township. This "three window," one-room schoolhouse closed its doors to the last classes of all eight grades on July 16, 1947. The actual chalkboard, which was made of mud, plaster, and horse hair, can be seen in the schoolhouse today. The Stoney Point School was relocated to the Harn Homestead in 1987.

Stand in the same spot where Captain Benjamin Bonneville and his expedition party overlooked the valley he named Les Bois, site of the city that today bears the same name Boise. The view takes in the entire Treasure Valley. The site is also an access point for the Oregon Trail and a place to hike, picnic, and view wildlife. A mountain bike trail to Lucky Peak Reservoir also runs nearby.
Point Reyes Lighthouse perched above the Pacific Ocean. It's a short half mile hike to the lighthouse overlook from the parking lot and then 300 steps down to the lighthouse. Which means its 300 steps back up!

This weekend it was International Lighthouse and Lightship weekend. This meant that decommissioned lighthouses around the world were fired up once more and the public were invited along to have a look inside. I headed over to the Point Perpendicular lighthouse and enjoyed the bracing 65kmh winds and 7º temps to capture the lighthouse's light. However my favourite shot of the night was this one taken shortly after sunset with Bowen Island and the Booderee National Park in the background on the other side of Jervis Bay. Cheers all :)
