This is an image from my fall trip to Canada. This infamous lighthouse is called Peggy's Cove in Nova Scotia. I was fortunate enough to spend three days here shooting several sunrises and sunsets. This is one of the most stunning lighthouses I have seen in my lifetime.

Fort Rodd Hill National Historic Site is a 19th-century coastal artillery fort on the Colwood, British Columbia side of Esquimalt harbour, (Greater Victoria/Victoria BC Metropolitan Area). The site is adjacent to Fisgard Lighthouse National Historic Site, the first lighthouse on the west coast of Canada. Both the fort and lighthouse are managed and presented to the public by Parks Canada, and are open every day (except Christmas Day).
Rodd Hill was named for John Rashleigh Rodd, 1st Lieutenant on the HMS Fisgard (Capt. John A. Dunze. Rodd was later promoted to rear admiral in 1877; vice admiral in 1884, and admiral in 1888.

12 minutes @f5 taken 1/2 hour before moonrise. I was just killing time before the moonrise and managed to get in some star trails. I adjusted the white balance to get a little more pleasing sky colour, it came out a sickly green. The street light from the pier behind me lit up the adjacent break-wall with an erie glow, and the building behind me cast a shadow on the water...
Le phare du Cap Alright, aussi appelé le phare de l'Échouerie, du nom d'une plage située tout près, a été construit en 1928. On le trouve dans le village de Havre-aux-Maisons aux Iles-de-la-Madeleine. Il est toujours actif.

Classic Sailing are adventure sailing specialist. Look at this Flickr discussion on
7 ways you can sail. Taken from Eve of St Mawes by Chief Skipper Adam on the way back from a voyage to the Isles of Scilly. It was a gorgeous evening with the sun setting and about an hour to go to home. The Manacles is a dangerous set of rocks off the eastern part of the Lizard Peninsula in Cornwall. The dangers are protected by the Manacles Buoy and St Anthony Lighthouse that shines a red light at you if you are on a line drawn from the light through the rocks.
Historically many ships came to grief there and the local church at St Kevern has many graves of sailors.
I love this lighthouse at Heart's Content....built in 1901, it is located on the rugged coast of Trinity Bay, Newfoundland. Not far from this lighhouse is the location of the landfall of the first transatlantic cable which successfully carried a telegraph signal from Queen Victoria to President James Buchanan on August 16, 1858.

"We made a brief one-night pit stop at home tonight. In the morning we're off to Vermont. See you next week!"
With all that time spent along the coast, I had to take a few classic lighthouse shots.
