Beachyhead Lighthouse, South Coast of England
Featured in History July 4, 2009. / Featured in Going Coastal April 11, 2009. / Featured in Live, Love, Dream 9/8/08 this image was shot with a Nikon D40x using an 18-135 lens. Since I was shooting into the sun, it was put through photoshop and worked on with “levels,” “highlights and shadows,” and “Gaussian Blur.” I also gave it a bit of a cropping and changed the color of the sky from white to blue. Nubble Light House is located in York, Maine. Photo taken September, 2008.
This is the lighthouse at CapeSpear, Newfoundland. It is the most easterly point in North America. / / Settings & Gear Used / / Manual Exposure / Shutter Speed: 21 seconds / Apeture: 8 / ISO: 100 / Focal Length: 22mm / / Canon 400D / Canon 10-22 lens / Manfrotto 055XProB Tripod / Manfrotto 222 Joystick / Cable Release / / Visit my website On The Rock Photography / / / / /
This year marks the 250th anniversary of the Sambro Island Lighthouse. Families, including cousins of mine used to live on the island all year round. There were two homes which are still standing, but barely. I believe the building you are seeing in this shot is where the families kept their supplies and storage. The island is said to be haunted by a man. I was quite disappointed to not have felt or seen something eerie while I was there. There is also a spot which looks to be carved out of the rocks on the island called the “Devil’s Footprints” The story goes that the devil walks up out of the water and walks up the rocks to the island. What the devil would want with a lighthouse I have no idea, but that is what I was told. The rock pattern is very odd though and quite something to see. The lighthouse is now run by solar panels and no human hands are needed. Even the fog horn is run by a machine that detects fog. Even though I did not see or feel a ghost, the island has a very lonely feel to it, an abandoned and sad spot. I couldn’t imagine being there alone….no, I just could not!
this was shot from the back side of the lighthouse, along a cliff trail. I transformed it into a silhouette in photoshop CS3. I added the moon, moon taken from another photo I took. /
This was one of the most spectacular sunsets I have witnessed in a long time and Scott and I were lucky enough to be at Peggy’s Cove in Nova Scotia when it occurred. At first I was hoping these two love birds would get out of my shot but then I realized they added to it… I hope you enjoy it!
Fort Amherst is located at the entrance of St. John’s Harbor opposite Signal Hill across the Narrows’. The Fort was built in the 1770’s to defend the entrance of the Narrows’. Gun placements were used at The Fort during WWII to protect the harbor from German U-boats. In 1813 a lighthouse was built at Fort Amherst and was to be the first permanent lighthouse established in Newfoundland. It operated until 1835 but was then replaced by a new structure in 1852, which was demolished in the early 1950’s to make way for the new lighthouse which is seen today. / More in this series / / / / / / / / Visit my website On The Rock Photography
I set the alarm for 3am and headed out to the coast to catch a sunrise. / / This is the lighthouse at CapeSpear, Newfoundland. It is the most easterly point in North America. So while everyone else was sleeping I was the very first person in North America to see this sunrise… how cool is that! / / The rock that makes the cliffs that the lighthouse sits on reminded me of a martian landscape… / / Settings & Gear Used / / Manual Exposure / Shutter Speed: 10 seconds / Apeture: 16 / ISO: 100 / Focal Length: 22mm / / Canon 400D / Canon 10-22 lens / Manfrotto 055XProB Tripod / Manfrotto 222 Joystick / Cable Release / / Visit my website On The Rock Photography / / / /

An especially beautiful evening at Peggy’s Cove, Nova Scotia, with a quiet Atlantic Ocean and a beautiful flaming sunset.I’ve already posted one from the same evening (“Fireball”) and I thought it would be interesting to silhouette the lighthouse against the setting sun. I waited until there were no people about,I felt it would be an intrusion on the serenity of the scene.
this was shot from the back side of the lighthouse, along a cliff trail. I transformed it into a silhouette in photoshop CS3.
The very remote Noup Head and its lighthouse on the island of Westray in the Orkney Islands.
One of the lighthouses that sits at the entrance to the Delaware Bay. This shot taken from The Point at Cape Henlopen State Park in Lewes, DE at sunset on a lovely October evening.
