Keep looking up! I learn from the past, dream about the future and look up. There's nothing like a beautiful sunset to end a healthy day. - Rachel Boston

These seagulls in flight look so ethereal, I thought that one of the song/music tracks called Etheric Messages(as background music) from one of my most favourite aritst Natacha Atlas would be perfect. (Maktub - meaning 'it is written' or it's destiny) - the track might be an acquired taste for some : )).
L’ancien petit village de pécheur de Varkala au sud de l’inde est un endroit idyllique pour finir un périple chaotique.
Another sunset in New Brighton North West England
The Original Perch Rock
Perch Rock, New Brighton Lighthouse, sits next to the fort, it was originally, a wooden "Perch", hence its name. A large post held a light on top and was supported by a sort of tripod. It was erected on the Black Rock in 1683 by the Liverpool Corporation.
When foreign ships, passed the old perch, they were charged sixpence for its respect and to keep it in repair. But it was often washed away and a boat had to be launched to recover it from Bootle Bay. In February 1821, the pilot boat "Liver" crashed into the perch and carried it away. It has been said that it was washed away in March 1824 and not recovered until the December.
However the cost of replacing it all the time grew too expensive and it was decided to build a new one.
Construction of the Lighthouse
The foundation stone of the new lighthouse was laid on 8th June 1827 by Thomas Littledale, Mayor of Liverpool. It was designed on the lines of Eddystone by Mr. Foster and built of marble rock from Anglesey by Tomkinson & Company. It rises 90 feet above the rocks and is considered to be a masterpiece of craftsmanship. The granite cost 1/6d a cubic foot.
Each piece of stone is interlocked into the next. The whole stonework, when finished , was coated with what is known as "Puzzellani" a volcanic substance from Mount Etna which, with age, becomes rock hard. The first 45 feet is solid. A spiral staircase leads to where the keeper lived and then on to the lantern house. The revolving light was said to be the first in the country. It cost £27,500 to construct.
The Lighthouse In Use
Work was only possible at low tide and it was not completed until 1830. Its first light shone on the 1st March of that yea and consisted of two white flashes, followed by one red, with a range of 14 miles. The light was 77 feet above the half-tide level. It was eventually electrically connected to the mainland.
The Lighthouse last shone its light on 1st October 1973 as it was no longer needed on account of the radar system operating in the River.
When I was taken a picture of the sunset, two flocks of geese flew into the picture. I was using 18-70 lens. I want to get a wide picture of the sunset.

I am interested to see the change of sky colour at the sunset time (haha because sunrise is too early....), I will wait and stay for 2 hours and this is really interesting to capture these moments.
The sun is shining now but about an hour ago we had enormous claps of thunder followed by an enormous rain storm. It feels a bit symbolic of what is going on in the world around us.
