The Cliffs of Moher (Irish: Aillte an Mhothair) are located at the southwestern edge of the Burren region in County Clare, Ireland. They rise 120 metres above the Atlantic Ocean at Hag's Head, and reach their maximum height of 214 metres just north of O'Brien's Tower, eight kilometres to the north. The tower is a round stone tower near the midpoint of the cliffs built in 1835 by Sir Cornelius O'Brien. From the cliffs and from atop the tower, visitors can see the Aran Islands in Galway Bay, the Maumturks and Twelve Pins mountain ranges to the north in County Galway, and Loop Head to the south. The cliffs rank amongst the top visited tourist sites in Ireland, and receive almost one million visitors a year.
Just miles away from San Diego Sea World, Sunset Cliffs provides natural scenery of rugged seashore beauty.
This was taken from our hotel roof, on the sunbathing and pool deck.
The cliffs changed so much with the different lighting conditions. This was taken in mid morning as the sun came over the horizon.

These cliffs are made of white limestone (chalk) which are basically shells of tiny marine animals decomposed millions of years ago.
I visited the cliffs of Moher in Ireland this week. Such a fantastic place. Nature can be so majestic ...
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
A view that I've tried to capture many times, never really successfully. This is probably my best attempt. This is the view west along the Cliffs from Elmo's Tower (directly behind the viewer in the linked photo). It's a dramatic view -- sweeping skies, tall cliffs, curving roads, beautiful woods -- but very hard to capture. You've just gotta climb up the cliffs and see it in person!

Awesome view!

Taken in small valley not far from Reykjavik, Iceland.
I think this place is called Stóri-Hamradalur (it is on the Djúpavatn / Vigdísarvellir road).
The valley is closed in both ends, and in the rainy Icelandic climate one would expect it to be filled with water and be another small lake, but there was no visible surface water anywhere. This is probably due to the extremely porous lava geology of this area, causing most of the water to flow deep underground.
