The Donkin Reserve boasts two of the most prominent landmarks of Port Elizabeth. Enjoy the views from a different perspective.
The pyramid backlit by the early morning sun. It was built by Sir Rufane Donkin, Acting Governor of the Cape Colony, in memory of his wife Elizabeth. He also named the city after her 1820.
The lighthouse is no longer operational and is now used as a tourism centre

I love that view of the lighthouse!!! It seems so much taller in that photo than in the next...
I guess your light houses aren't needed anymore either, at least according to your government. I'm glad it has found an alternate use.
Wow! How abstract! Fantastic.
Cool shots.

Now that's what I call "artsy-fartsy" photography--so WONDERFUL for us to view and so difficult to get just right. You did great. . .
Oh, what a photo find this place is! Your photos are so well done...the perspective of that lighthouse is awesome, especially.
I also featured the Donkin in my post today. The Donkin Reserve always make for some awesome photographic opportunities with so many angles and perspectives possible.
Great angles and great shots.
Lovely. I'm fond of lighthouses. There are some you can find that you can overnight in--that would be fun.
Magnificent captures!
Happy SWF.
