Weekly photo challenge 2017 (Week 32) Point

There can only be one for me, bearing in mind where we live….

… Europa Point of course!

The Trinity Lighthouse stands guard over the Strait of Gibraltar, at the Rock’s southernmost tip – Europa Point. On a clear day the mountains across the Strait in Morocco look almost close enough to touch.

I still find it amazing that I can see northern Africa from my home!

Perhaps this shot (below) puts it into more perspective, taken from the Med Steps.

The Lighthouse had a makeover recently and is now looking better than ever (see top picture).

You can get a bird’s eye view of Europa Point as you take off fromor come in to land at Gibraltar airport. Sadly the murky conditions when I took this photo meant the Lighthouse isn’t clear, but you can see the Mosque…

Here’s the Mosque on a clearer day standing beside the Lighthouse and looking north along the Mediterranean coast.


I’m joining with Nana Cathy and Wild Daffodil for this weekly photo challenge throughout 2017.
