Apparently this amazing rock formation is not a human-made monument – it’s a monument of Mother Nature. Vermillion Cliffs (Arisona, U.S.A.) at Navajo Bridge.
I was up before sunrise and went for a wander from our BnB. The rock is probably one that was once pushed by a glacier but now makes a bold ah statement as a gatepost.
Have a good day.
I was fascinated at the beautiful blue sea below, partly caused by a rock fall. Old Harry Rocks along the Jurassic Coast in Dorset. At the top of the cliffs you can just see how small the people are in comparison to how high these cliffs are.

Just got home from Beaumaris in Anglesey Wales so late with my photo this week. We visited Penmon Lighthouse on a very sunny but cold afternoon, in the lead up to the lighthouse there were very many interesting rock pools so I thought this would be a good idea for a water element. I have cropped the photo down to fit in with the 3" limit.
Sigiriya Rock, Sri Lanka
The UNESCO World Heritage Site of Sigiriya is truly unique not only for its remaining ruins, but also for its stunning location.
The palace ruins on the summit of Sigiriya rock consist of several massive brick walls and pools, which were carved into the solid rock, and the sheer drop-offs on any side of the summit offer panoramic views in all directions.
The entry to the summit leads through massive Lion's claws which are the remains of what was once a much larger structure. In ancient times, the stairway lead straight into the mouth of a lion, and the name Sigiriya, which literally means Lions Rock, stems from this impressive monument.
The Royal gardens below the rock are surrounded by the outer moat and are among the most important and spectacular features of Sigiriya, and are considered to be among the oldest landscaped gardens in the world.

Said to be the largest rock basin on Dartmoor this naturally eroded feature is on top of Kestor Rock (a tor that does not carry tor in the name). Whe climbed up as part of a fantastic circular hike around Scorhill and Gidleigh on North Eastern Dartmoor. We first spotted some smaller basins and thought that those were the one mentioned before almost falling into that incredible well! As with many Darmoor locations this basin also comes along with plenty of legends. Druids possibly used the basin for sacrificial rituals....
For those interested, I made a video of the entire walk:

The famous climbing Hut Black Rock Cottage is situated on the access road to the Glencoe mountain ski area. Black Rock Cottage is one of the most famous white painted buildings in the Scottish Highlands. Sitting proudly in front of the Buachaille Etive Mòr mountain in Glen Coe Black Rock Cottage will remain a firm favourite with photographers and hikers who pass on the west Highland way.
Reflection under the rock bridge, or the waters not that deep. The lady precariously balances on a rock while the dog wades right in. This is a natural bridge formation know as Rock Bridge State Park in Missouri. I am standing in the other opening, up the creek is another entrance but to the cave. The land in between collapsed years ago leaving this natural formation.
