The design of this apartment building strikes me as unnecessarily complex--all those levels and set-backs and especially the odd double-window outgrowths, upper left. What is the aim? To give more units more daylight? A new building in Oakland's upper Broadway neighborhood.

Pilot Mountain - North Carolina.
This is a cool little park, filled with great views of the surrounding land.
The last light of the day shines on a cliff face just east of the Royal Arches in Yosemite Valley casting the Sun’s warm glow on the cool Sierra Nevada granite. The enormity of the Sierra Nevada Batholith - the mass of granite that makes up the majority of the mountain range - never ceases to amaze me. Looking down upon its glacially carved and eroded shapes I ponder the vast geological tapestry that led to this superlative valley, and the forces still at work pushing them higher. While this narrow sunlit ledge is merely 1600 feet or so above the valley floor below, just half the height of its famous neighbor away to the west, El Capitan, it is quite dramatic in the spotlight.
RSPB Bempton Cliffs a splendid cliff top reserve and a wonderful place to see close up views of nesting sea birds. Today I observed lots of Gannets and Kittiwakes nesting. I did see 2 Puffins out at sea, but none on the cliff tops yet. I also heard a Skylark for the first time this year. Well worth a visit
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.
