Looking across the bay to the lighthouse in the village of my childhood, my back to the industrial scars behind. Its weird that I never looked over from here before. The view towards this point was punctuated by the flares from the burning stacks, their own kind of lighthouse. How anybody thought that was the right thing to do is baffling. For now, I watch the sea and wait for high tide. Pilgrimage. #mumbleslighthouse

With all this lovely summer weather we've been having, it reminded me of this photo I took of Storm Ophelia at Bracelet Bay with Mumbles Lighthouse in the distance.

It’s going to be a rough day in the west. Happy Weds!

This is the early morning sky above Mumbles Lighthouse.The brightest star is Vega, a pulsating double star that is 25 light years away. Light pollution from Port Talbot and Swansea is visible on the horizon. The higher concentration of stars on the left is a faint Milky Way.
