Extractions: By B. John Zavrel, Museum of European Art With an artistic vision comparable to Man Ray, Philippe Halsman and Helmut Newton, young photographer Kenneth J. Dulian presents the ages old fascination with lighthouses in a new light. Lighthouses have been around in one form or another nearly as long as human civilization. However, throughout the 20th century, radar and other navigational systems have gradually made lighthouses nearly obsolete. At least, this is the case in the modern Western world. All the same, we have not lost any of our fascination with them. Thanks to the Kenneth J. Dulian, we are enriched with a new way of seeing the objects of a timeless fascination. He provokes us to think about lighthouses in such a way as to awaken within us feelings of longing and reunion. What exactly is a lighthouse, and what significance did it once have? The lighthouse is a tower-like navigational aid which emits a strong light, making it visible from long distances. In the past, this light was given through the burning of wood or coal, and it was necessary that a caretaker be present at all times. They were installed at important points on the coast, on lakes, islands, and especially dangerous shallow waters. Today, most lighthouses function without a human caretaker, since they have become fully-automated. Also, they don't have to be fed with wood or coal. And where lighthouses are no longer used, we still let them - fortunately - stand. They remind us about earlier times, and they guide memories back to us from the boundless oceans of our childhood.

Extractions: Almanac Cool Stuff Architecture Source: The United States Coast Guard Our first lighthouses were actually given to us by Nature. Sailors sometimes used landmarks such as glowing volcanoes to guide them. In the Ancient World, trading ships were eventually built enabling navigators to sail long distances to buy and sell goods. In the days of wooden ships with sails, the wind and waves could easily push them against the rocks and wreck them. And so, the need for lighthouses as warning signals arose. Today we call people who study (or are interested in) lighthouses pharologists. The name comes from that famous lighthouse. What is a lighthouse? It is a tower with a bright light at the top, located at an important or dangerous place regarding navigation (travel over water). The two main purposes of a lighthouse are to serve as a navigational aid and to warn boats of dangerous areas. It is like a traffic sign on the sea. Do all lighthouses look alike? Although we often think of a lighthouse as a tall, white conical tower, there are many, many variations of design. Depending on its location, it might be tall (where the land was very flat) or short and squat (where there was a high cliff or rocky coast). It could be square, octagonal (with eight sides), conical (like an ice cream cone upside down), or cylindrical (like a very fat pipe). When the lighthouses were built, they were constructed with whatever materials were most readily available. They were designed to fit the local geographic and climatic conditions. Some are made of stone; others brick, concrete, wood, steel, cast iron, and even tabby (a mixture of shells, lime, sand and water).

Extractions: Photos courtesy of Carolyn Dunnington The only Highway to Long Beach (Pacific Rim National Park) is Highway 4 , that starts at Parksville , travels through Port Alberni and on to Ucluelet and Tofino , 140km (86.6mi) away. The 42.5km (25.7mi) section of Highway 4 between the two villages of Ucluelet and Tofino has road access to Long Beach. There are numerous signs with information about where you can hike, stroll the beach and camp. For a good overview of the park, visit the Wickaninnish Centre, an interpretive centre with theatre programs, exhibits, displays and activities helping visitors to understand the marine ecology, ocean and rainforests. Start exploring Long beach at Schooner Cove. As you approach the beach, leaving behind the cedar-hemlock forest , the Sitka spruce becomes prevalent. This Sitka spruce fringe goes all the way around the outer edge of Vancouver Island and the Queen Charlotte Islands . The sitka spruce is especially adapted to grow in this area.. To really get a feeling of the fringe, take the Spruce Fringe Trail.
