Heceta Head Lighthouse – Oregon

Oregon coastline - one lighthouse and an other-13   Oregon coastline - one lighthouse and an other-20

The Heceta Head Lighthouse and Light Keeper’s house are circa 1894. Both are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The lighthouse is a working lighthouse. From a height of 205 feet above the ocean, its “first order” Fresnel lens, casts it’s beams some 21 miles out to sea. It is the brightest light on the Oregon coast. It is said to be the most photographed lighthouse in the United States.

The Heceta Head Keeper’s House is perched on a cliff with a magnificent view of the Pacific Ocean and the beach below. Paths from the Keeper’s House lead both to the beach and to the lighthouse.

Weekly photo challenge – inside

I had trouble deciding what kind of pictures I would like to add to this. Here are two different approaches to it. The first picture are taken in valley of the Kings in Cyprus
Spread over a vast area, these impressive underground tombs date back to the 4th century BC. They are carved out of solid rock while some are decorated with Doric pillars. High officials rather than Kings were buried here, but the magnificence of the tombs gave the locality its name.

The other set is home of the elephant farm workers in Thailand…totally different take.

Weekly Photo Challenge – Different Point of View

I took photos of this old wooden barn –  I have not taken  one single shot  of the whole building,  but the parts that are about to be destroyed by time.

I do not once again know if this a different point of view… of what. But it is beautiful in its ugliness.
