This shot was taken on the Federation Cliff walkway outside of the area that the tourists normally go.
The Cliffs of Moher (Aillte an Mhothair) located at the south western edge of the Burren region in County Clare.
The bright glow coming from the right hand side of the Evening Sunset which wasn't there long enough to catch many more snaps. Within 5 mins of this shot it lashed down I had to make a dash for cover.

On the Nikon Workshop I attended over the last few days, Adam Burton, one of the tutors, suggested I try this location, which faces south and was a bit more sheltered from the wind. The light was amazing and I managed to get this shot which I think is my favourite from the workshop.
Cabo Espichel (lit. Cape Espichel) is a cape located to the west of Sesimbra, Portugal. Tourists are drawn there due to breathtaking views of its cliffs facing the Atlantic Ocean.
The location is famous for the a sanctuary complex (lit. Santuário de Nossa Senhora do Cabo Espichel), built extremely close to the edge of the tall cliffs, which includes a church still in use today.
Also famous, are the several dinosaur fossil trackways exposed in some of the now tilted Jurassic strata which form the cape's cliffs. It is said that local superstition interpreted the trackways as the path taken by the Holy Virgin ("Nossa Senhora") when riding a giant mule from the ocean and up the cliffs, which led to the eventual construction of the convent at that location.

An unknown girl doing some yoga on the Trolltunga (the troll’s tongue) rock. Trolltunga is reached after an 11 km hike where you climb up 1050 m in total. We camped on the cliff and returned the 11 kms the next day.
The rock is sticking out of a cliff at 1200 m above sealevel. It is overlooking Ringedalsvatnet (at app. 465 m above sealevel), a lake in the municipality of Odda in Hordaland county, Norway. The lake below is the main reservoir for a hydroelectric power station in Tyssedal which provides electricity for the power intensive industries in the nearby town of Odda. This explains the clearly visible waterlevel-marks on the lower parts of the mountains surrounding it. The Ringedals dam all the way in the back is 521 m wide and 33 m high and was constructed between 1910 and 1918.

More (smaller) cool ruins in the comments, which one do you like like best?
Strange as it may seem, Gorge Dam is 2.5 miles upstream from this powerhouse, which is nestled against a cliff at an angle on one side of the Skagit River.
To get a sense of scale, see if you can find three people walking on the cliff tops. Hint: they're at the right of the picture.
The tide was in and the wind was blowing ferociously creating this foaming sea at Birling Gap as the sun was setting on the last day of 2015
Went to the ocean for magic hour. I don't know where my head was at, but it certainly wasn't on photography.
Came back with virtually nothing

I had a few thoughts about what to shoot this week, but as I wanted to get out to the coast, I decided to document the problem of cliff erosion in Norfolk. It's a real problem around the coast of East Anglia as much of the coast line is soft sand, so all it takes is a high tide or storm and a section of the coast line falls into the sea.
In places, the coast line is eroding at 2metres per year. There are some sea defences in some areas, but in others, nothing. Anyway, this is East Runton, a beautiful spot to watch the sunset yesterday, but it has no sea defences.
There is a wind farm out to sea though, one of many around the east coast.

I post most frequently to my main Instagram so there are more photos there.

These cliffs really tower over your head while standing in the Rio Grande. Here's a video of my Big Bend experience and a little look at life behind the lens: Big Bend National Park Video
An der Algarve gab es Fischer, die von den Klippen aus ihre Angeln ausgelegt haben. Dabei befanden Sie sich oft bis zu 60m über dem Wasserspiegel.
We picked a great day to do the Ring of Kerry and take a short detour along the Skellig Ring to see the Kerry Cliffs. The sun was shining, and the blues of the water with bright greens just made these views seem otherworldly. The skies were clear enough that you could see the Skellig Islands. One has a monastery dating back to the 6th century and was used to film Luke Skywalker's home in two recent Star Wars movies.
