Rock formation and lighthouse

    This is La Corbiere lighthouse on the island of Jersey, first lit in 1874. I visited the site in January this year.

    tzzzzme Well spotted! Thanks for the info, it must be a beautiful place to visit. Here are some other lovely pictures of the lighthouse.

    tzzzzme Good call! Jersey - hmmm! I wonder if Edward Hungerford went there, or just collected a great photo for his album? Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons Yes, I'd say the top photo is of the Pink and White Terraces in NZ.

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] I think you would have been able to see that witch's hat spire, unless blocked by the ASN Co, tower, but it was not yet built. I am thinking about 1890 for the date The GPO tower seems to be see-thru with open staircases, and no 1891 clock. I tried to post a GoogleMapsStreetView for comparison, but it is not currently letting me copy the link. Something to do with my trying the New Google Maps which is nearly as much of a nightmare as the New Flickr, but at least with the option to go back!

    I am not sure whether this was taken from Milsons Point or McMahons Point, very close to that 'Leddicott' house. Leaning towards the latter due to the alignment of the terrace in Fort Street (see note).

    Second thoughts - this is definitely from Milsons Point, from about where the northern pylon for the Harbour Bridge is now - see the alignment of the pointy bits on the ASNCo building at Circular Quay west - GoogleMapsStreetView - goo.gl/maps/i40Kg

    This photo seems to be almost a panorama with - ... but with different ships in the foreground.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    I am fairly sure that is the ORIENT in the foreground (forewater?!). The two slightly-raked funnels, arrangement of ventilators, masts with spars and gaffs, and the white walls with portholes - all seem to match the ORIENT photo -

    beachcomber australia Feel another panorama coming on...? Let me check & see if Hungerford has any more Circular Quay shots up his sleeve...
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons Yes! Not quite a panorama, but you can see the intention - Doubly sure that is the ORIENT.
