One of many ants on a hill near Siem Reap, Kingdom of Cambodia.
This guy looks like he is about to fall down the small "cliff"...a piece of rock actually. :)
View of the third Cliff House
From Wikepedia, "In 1896, Adolph Sutro built a new Cliff House, a seven story Victorian Chateau, called by some "the Gingerbread Palace", below his estate on the bluffs of Sutro Heights. This was the same year work began on the famous Sutro Baths in a small cove immediately north of the Restaurant. The baths included six of the largest indoor swimming pools, a museum, a skating rink and other pleasure grounds. Great throngs of San Franciscans arrived on steam trains, bicycles, carts and horse wagons on Sunday excursions. Sutro purchased some of the collection of stuffed animals, artwork, and historic items from Woodward's Gardens to display at both the Cliff House and Sutro Baths.[5]
The 1896 Cliff House survived the 1906 earthquake with little damage, but burned to the ground on the evening of September 7, 1907, after existing for only 11 years."
More from my trip through the Southwest last August. I guess I did more multi-frame panoramic shots than I remember. I posted half of this when I was originally uploading shots from this trip.
When I got as close to the drop off as I dared, this is what I saw. I had no idea these cliffs existed; then I looked right and they exploded into my sight. You get no hint when going down the trail to the lighthouse.

Any comments on how I could have enhanced this photo in post processing apart from taking an HDR, would be greatly appreciated
