Probably the best picture I got of the cliffs. I later saw this exact same shot in an inspirational calendar at a gift shop.
Snæfellsjökull park. Snæfellsnes peninsula.
Uniquely-formed remnants of ancient basalt volcanic dikes sticking out from the sea.
Londrangar and the hill Svalthufa are the remains of a crater, which has been eroded to its present form by the sea.
The farmers in the area never made or make hay on the hill, because it is said to belong to the elves living in the area.
Younger lava fields surround this old crater ruin. The higher pillar (75m) was first climbed in 1735 and the lower (61 m) in 1938.
Below the hill you may find Thufubjarg cliff where according to a folktale the poet Kolbeinn Joklaskald had an encounter with the Devil.
On these cliffs, puffins and fulmars have their nests.

Red Cliffs above Carbondale, Colorado.
Carbondale takes its name from Carbondale, Pennsylvania, hometown of some of Carbondale's early settlers. Carbondale's economy was initially agriculturally based. Farmers and ranchers capitalized on open lands around Carbondale to supply food for miners in nearby Aspen, then a booming center of silver mining activity. Early in the 20th century, before the rise of industrial agriculture in Idaho, Carbondale's primary agricultural product was potatoes. The legacy lives on in Potato Day, an annual fall parade and cookout in Sopris Park.
Despite the non-geologic origins of the town's name, the Carbondale area does in fact possess significant coal resources. Until the late 1980s Cabondale's economy was primarily based on coal operations up the Crystal River Valley. The coal mined from the area was favored for its high burning temperature, low sulphur content, and density. However, the coal deposits also contained significant amounts of methane gas. In 1981, a methane gas explosion killed 15 miners and by 1991 the mines closed down permanently.
The rise of Aspen as a skiing mecca and subsequent hyperinflation of its real estate prices has forced a majority of its workers downvalley to other towns like Carbondale. Thus, especially since the 1980s, Carbondale has partly served as a bedroom community to Aspen. More recently Carbondale has seen a boom of second-home construction, arts and recreational amenities, and tourism as the area's wealth and renown has grown. (Wikipedia)
It looks like a nose sticking out of the cliff from this angle when the wildlife ferry got in really close to the cliffs.
People photo the old man of hoy, but this is the hill you have to walk at the start of your journey to it.

Enjoy!
I hardly take photographs in black and white , but if I do it is only because I believe that these colors could never express their true nature.
The black and white should be used with the proper precautions , I think that if a person is not able to get a good black and white, it is better to continue to leave the photos in color.
Going down a creek cliff called " s'archittu " ( given by the shape of an arc of a rocky cliff ), I placed at the ends of this , the tide began to rise , the waves were arranged in a tremendous flurry of foam that s'infrangeva along the rocks.
Around me, a natural swimming pool where the water swirl it possible to admire the strength of the waves.
Set up the tripod behind a rock I put it calmly in focus, after placing the ND3 .0 I took 3 shots from about 20 seconds .
Back home I viewed the file , after a quick preparation LR5 I merged these with the same method as the previous photo .
But this time the colors are not communicated anything to me , the black and white was the right choice!
I particularly love the black and white shots of Sebastião Salgado , one day I 'd like to get whites and blacks so vivid and valuable , full of nuances and facets.
But now I'll settle mine, a hard and stark black and white but that reflects well on my way to shoot.
