Leave a light on for me...
    Some pics from Whitehaven on the west coast of the UK famous for being the opnly place where America invaded in 1778 by John Paul Jones .... More details here... Whitehaven attack The lighthouse is on the end of the Harbour weathered and almost derelict but there are three within the harbour itself the rest are needing some tlc and the pics are a tad dark so will post after processing. as the weather was plain dull. excuse once again the photomatix watermarks as usual still not got around to buying it.

Hello FoG, very nice shots you have there. I really like #4, I would imagine that that position was once really occupied just like that. Now regarding this John Paul Jones fella, what did you all do, aggravate him?
Hee Hee, Have a good day! |

Great Caputures FoG! and a really interesting bit of history from the link you provided.
I'd never heard of this battle and really enjoyed reading it. Thanks for Sharing these Michael.

Looks like you chose the perfect day to shoot these. Love the bright reds against the dark clouds on the third one. I also love the b&w shot.
