This was one of my all-time favourite Emily days!
What a glorious day it was, bank holiday weekend and Gemma was visiting so we decided to go for a day at the seaside, taking in Bridlington and Flamborough.
Gemma lives in Derby which is absolutely miles away from the coast, so it's not often she gets to go to the seaside!
It was only after Gemma pointed out to me later on, that I realised this was probably the most 'out' and visible we have ever been in the 'real world'. Bridlington was absolutely packed as you would expect on a sunny Bank Holiday weekend, so there really was no hiding place! Was another great boost for my confidence. There are not many places I would hesitate to go nowadays!
Down on the little beach in the bay.
While we were down there we saw a couple of sea lions out in the bay too - so cute!
Pausing to enjoy a Mediterranean vista. We tried to get down to the beach below here, making a pretty hairy downlimb most of the way, but the last 50 feet were too technical to attempt unroped.
Later, we were able to access some of these coves we couldn't get to from above by scrambling along the rocks at the cliffs' bases.
Here's a close view of the towering sandstone cliffs that grace the Wisconsin shoreline of Lake Superior. I love the layers of red and burnt orange that create those beautiful patterns in the rock! Soft sunlight falling on this rock face added to its vibrant hues...
Small particles of red sand from these rocks produce varying degrees of orange and yellow colors to some of the frozen ice formations...

On March 3, 2014, I had the delight of visiting the Ice Caves of northern Wisconsin.
The Apostle Islands Ice Caves have made national and international news this winter because of the rare opportunity to walk onto frozen Lake Superior and hike the mile to the caves on the shoreline. This happens every six to ten years or so, depending on the temperatures and their duration, making it safe to walk onto Lake Superior.
Yet another gorgeous section of the Pembrokeshire coastline, with a beautiful array of colours in the rocks, sea and surrounding grassland.
Acapulco cliff diver at La Quebrada. The cliff divers literally jump off a rocky cliff for a tricky 148 foot (45 m) dive down into the sea below.

Tragically I am moving so I could not retrieve this charming portrait from the rubbish. I did think about hanging it up for my tenants but they are foreign and may be scared by Sir Cliff's greatness.
A gentle looking, medium-sized gull with a small yellow bill and a dark eye. It has a grey back and is white underneath. Its legs are short and black. In flight the black wing-tips show no white, unlike other gulls, and look as if they have been 'dipped in ink'. The population is declining in some areas, perhaps due to a shortage of sandeels. After breeding birds move out into the Atlantic where they spend the winter.
Bempton Cliffs June 18th 2017
He does this pretty much all the time. A fun sequence photo of a "Rodeo 540" dive, shot hand-held and comped/saturated using GIMP. My camera ran out of memory on the splash shot, and then I accidentally deleted it.
The cliff lift at Shanklin, built in 1958 to replace the WWII bomb damaged original. Recently refurbished, the lift carries people 34 metres from the Esplanade to the top of the cliff..... Only taking cash as payment, I walked the zig zag path.....
Otter Cliff is a cliff in Acadia National Park, which is famous on the post cards of the park. Though there is no otter nearby.
The hard chalk cliffs at Bempton rise are relatively resistant to erosion and offer lots of sheltered headlands and crevices for nesting birds. The cliffs run about 10 km from Flamborough Head north towards Filey and are over 100 metres (330 ft) high at points.

Bempton Cliffs is one of the best places in the England to see sea birds. From April to August more than 200,000 birds live on the cliffs. Adults bring food to their nests and young chicks launch into the air to make their first flights.
This image sets the scene to show the context and the scale of the cliffs.
