The irresponsible stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me.
There are frequent cliff falls here at Birling Gap, and yet people still go to the very edge and look over. I couldn't believe it when I saw this family with 2 young children walk to the edge, although they did take hold of their hands before they got there. Plus it was blowing a gale and a small child could easily get blown over.
The Cliffs of Moher are entirely vertical and the cliff edge is abrupt. On a clear day, the views are tremendous, with the Aran Islands etched on the waters of Galway Bay. From the cliff edge, you can just hear the booming far below as the waves crash and gnaw at the soft shale and sandstone.
With a due-west exposure, sunset is the best time to visit. The weather during our visit was perfection!
These cliffs are epic & just a short snowy walk to get to. The light was really flat when we got there though. I used a 10 stop ND filter for a two minute exposure to bring out the movement in the sky.
if you look under the tower on the cliff, you can make out a face, giving this image it's title. Taken just after a dull sunset

The Chalk Cliffs are an iconic historic landmark in Colorado's southern Sawatch Range. The cliffs are at the entrance to Chalk Creek Canyon (left) on the southeast flank of Mount Princeton. These striking white cliffs are made not of chalk but of kaolinite, a soft rock produced by hot springs percolating through cracks in the rock.
