Cliff-nesting gulls that have declined across the UK in recent decades have established a thriving colony in East Sussex on this cliff shown above, the white specs are Kittiwakes and saw then all fly in large numbers was very exciting.
Numbers of kittiwakes have more than halved since the mid-1900s across the UK, the RSPB said.
But a kittiwake colony at Splash Point, Seaford, has bucked the trend, by adding another 300 pairs to its numbers, according to the bird charity.
The Cliff Bridge, previously known as the Spa Bridge, is a footbridge in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England. Spanning the valley from St Nicholas Cliff to The Spa, it was completed in 1827 and is a Grade II listed building.[1]
The bridge has four segmental braced iron arches on plain tapering stone piers with stone abutments; its walkway is 414 feet (126 m) long. It is a rare example of a multiple-span cast iron bridge
Explored #413 - Thank you! The spectacular Cliffs of Moher have made it to the final stage of the “New 7 Wonders of Nature" campaign. The 700ft sea cliffs are vying for one of the seven top places with 27 other finalists. The seven locations will be chosen by votes from the public all over the world over the next two years and the winners will be announced in 2011.
From Wikipedia: "The Jasmund National Park is a nature reserve in the Jasmund peninsula, in the northeast of Rügen island in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. It is famous for the largest chalk cliffs of Germany, the so called Königsstuhl (German = "king's chair"). These cliffs are up to 161 m high above the Baltic Sea. The undisturbed beech forests behind the cliffs are also part of the national park." see more on en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jasmund_National_Park or de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationalpark_Jasmund

I saw that there was going to be some sun at Mosier today, so I thought it would be a good time to test out the new IR camera. By the time I got there, though, the clouds had declared victory. I took a picture anyway. It’s not bad.
Focusing with an IR camera is not a simple thing. I remember from many years of using IR film, that many vintage lenses have an infrared mark that shows you exactly where to set the focus. Modern auto-focus lenses… not so much. I though that I could just stop down to F16 like I have done with film, but the image here is still a little fuzzy. I will have to experiment further. Some sunshine would help.
Camera: Nikon D300 converted to IR
Lens: 18-70mm Nikon VR

The Bunda Cliffs stretch for several hundred kilometres along the coast of southern Australia. They are constantly pounded by the Southern Ocean
A house overlooking beautiful chalk cliffs in Dorset. I also like the geometry of the parallel wire and hillside :)
Standley Chasm, a narrow gorge in the West MacDonnell Ranges, located 50 km west of Alice Springs, Australia.
When I arrived there, the sun unfortunately disappeared behind the clouds, but the red colour of the cliffs was still very impressive.
Many thanks for your visits / comments / faves!
View of the Bay of Naples... seen from the clifftop downtown of Sorrento, coastal town in southwestern Italy... in the Bay of Naples on the Sorrentine Peninsula.
The Amalfi Coast (Province of Salerno) is a 100-mile stretch of coastline. Boat tours were available (in 2019) to cruise along the Sorrento and Amalfi coastlines.
