South Stack Lighthouse, Anglesey.
South Stack is set in a spectacular location to the north-west of Holyhead. The lighthouse acts as a waymark for coastal traffic and a landmark and orientation light for vessels crossing the Irish Sea to and from the ports of Holyhead and Dun Laoghaire.
History of the lighthouse
In 1645 when lighthouses were privately owned, King Charles II was petitioned for a patent to build a lighthouse on South Stack. The request was refused. However, 143 years after the original petition, Trinity House leased South Stack island and construction of the lighthouse commenced. On 9 February 1809, the station's oil lamps, designed by Daniel Alexander at a cost of £12,000, were first lit. In 1828 an iron suspension bridge was built to replace the rope catwalk that originally linked the lighthouse to the bottom of the 400 steps down the cliff face.
This was one of the many changes that have taken place at South Stack since 1809. The lights regularly became more efficient and in 1938 electric power replaced the oil that powered the lamps. In 1964 the iron bridge was taken down and a new one of aluminium was put up in its place.
The lighthouse was automated in 1984, and the keepers withdrawn. Today, the lighthouse is monitored and controlled by computer link from Trinity House Operations Centre in Harwich, Essex.

nothing is more satsifying than a stack of bowls...especially when you've made them your self.

apple leaves. lots. hand cut. fun. figured I had to reward myself with a pretty picture after cutting this lot out.
sorry
i made lots
i got up at 5.30am whilst on holiday one day to go to the cove and stack. The peace and tranquility was immense.
i built a set of 18 stacks in perfect alignment across the cove. unfortunately 18 sacks in a single line don't photograph well. they looked bloody brilliant though. as you walked in and out of the alignment you either saw one or a mass of stacks.
inspired by the master bebalance www.flickr.com/photos/rocker/sets/72157602341391436/ i tried counterbalancing stones. it made for more delicately balanced stacks.
i am going to upload the rest of the photos later. there are far too many but feel i have to put them all up.
It's snowing today so I am staying in and playing with a newly made light tent.
Strobist Info: Taken in a home made light box. SB800 right SB 600 left, both at about 1/64 power. The light box is made of PVC and white ripstop nylon.
Genius. The fries were cut into blocks and stacked with Pont-Neuf and covered in a red wine based "sauce brune".
I can never have a normal poutine again. ;)
Aside:
you know the place is busy when... the busboy, in the depths of the (behind the bar) kitchen just remarked "i think the cd is skipping".. and everyone realises we've been listening to Ella sing the same 2 bars for the last half hour. :)
This was taken on a welsh beach when I went to a Haven Holiday Park. The Beach and Landscapes are wonderful over there and there on a 2 minute walk from the site.

Yesterday when I came home my flat was freezing. There were only a couple of logs of firewood left and my trusty oil heater was in the storage room and I couldn't find the key to the padlock. Fortunately, mum let me and Aurora fill two big bags with wood at her place, and a neighbour helped me wrench the lock off the door, so now we're warm and snug, heater turned on and wood stack beautifully full.
It was so nice coming home to a warm home this evening. Though now we don't really need to light a fire...

The Asarco smokestacks, idle for years, were the tallest in Texas. They had been for decades an El Paso landmark. The one at left was 612 feet (184 m) tall and the one at right, further away, was 828 feet (248 m) tall.
Both stacks were demolished with explosives on April 13, 2013. View from the entrance to the Asarco site.
