A view taken from Cliff of Moher, half an hour journey from Galway city centre. It's raining and slippery on the day i went there. A very challenging time i guess to capture this view.
Pulau Langkawi is filled with interesting limestone caves housing many bat populations. I asked a local skipper to spend a morning showing me around the bat caves on the small islets and inner coves of a complex mangrove swamp. This particular cave at the end of a secluded beach had a tiny spider bat population--funny thing is, they really did look like giant spiders! Not surprisingly, the photo that I shot of the bats inside the cave didn't come out well.

More cliffs on Alderney. The rocks are Les Etacs or Gannett rock. This was taken on a windy day, and I was standing next to a blown-up Nazi bunker.

The White Cliffs of Dover are one of England's most spectacular and well-known natural features. They are an official icon of Britain and have been a sign of hope and freedom for centuries. Thousands enjoy their special appeal through the seasons by taking one of the clifftop paths, offering views of the French coast and savouring the rare flora and fauna that can only be found across this chalk grassland.
The coast around Sidmouth offers beautiful coastal scenery and rich geology. The red rocks, capped by yellow Upper Greensand and white Chalk, dominate the views.
This contrast is produced because the gap between the Triassic and the Cretaceous is such a well marked ‘unconformity' between rocks of different ages. In this part of the World Heritage Site, the Jurassic rocks have been completely eroded away.
The surrounding hills form a plateau rising inland from 200 to 350 metres. This is an ancient land surface produced by erosion over 40 million years ago in tropical climate.
