One of my favorite spots along the west coast is Spooner's Cove in Montana de Oro State Park. If I could set up a small shack here and live out the rest of my days, I'd die a happy man.

South Stack is a tiny island off the north-western tip of Holy Island - itself an island off the north-western tip of Anglesey. It is joined to Holy island by a small suspension bridge for pedestrians, at the foot of a steep flight of 350 steps down the cliffs, and is crowned by a 90ft lighthouse, now automatically operated.

South Stack is famous as the location of one of Wales' most spectacular lighthouses, South Stack Lighthouse. It has a height of 41 metres (135 feet). It has a maximum area of 7 acres.
Until 1828 when an iron suspension bridge was built, the only means of crossing the deep water channel on to the island was in a basket which was suspended on a hemp cable. The suspension bridge was replaced in 1964, but by 1983 the bridge had to be closed to the public, due to safety reasons. A new aluminium bridge was built and the lighthouse was reopened for public visits in 1997. Thousands of people flock to the lighthouse every year, thanks to the continued public transport service from Holyhead's town centre.
There are over 400 stone steps down to the footbridge (and not, as local legend suggests, 365), and the descent and ascent provide an opportunity to see some of the 4,000 nesting birds that line the cliffs during the breeding season. The cliffs are part of the RSPB South Stack Cliffs bird reserve, based at Elin's Tower.
The Anglesey Coastal Path passes South Stack, as does the Cybi Circular Walk. The latter has long and short variants; the short walk is 4 miles long and takes around two hours to complete. Travelling from the Breakwater Country Park, other sites along the way are the North Stack Fog Signal station, Caer y Tŵr, Holyhead Mountain and Tŷ Mawr Hut Circles.
Having a bit of creative fun, I stacked 130x2 second images and lightened in PhotoShop 6.0. Unlike my previous examples: www.flickr.com/photos/79387036@N07/albums/72157689221737561, these clouds seemed to be moving in many directions over this 4.3 minute interval.
Anyway, I thought the pattern was an interesting abstract and worth uploading. :-)

Among the most impressive sights along the Jurassic Coast are the sea stacks at Ladram Bay. The sandstones contain numerous vertical fractures and joints that were formed deep in the Earths crust during past mountain building periods. The sea picked out these planes of weakness to form caves and natural arches that have since collapsed to produce sea stacks. The “Otter Sandstone” that forms the cliffs and sea stacks were deposited in a hot dry climates in the Triassic Period about 220 Million years ago. The stacks are composed of the same rock, which is relatively soft, but they have a harder band of sandstone at their base which prevents their rapid erosion by the sea. The striking red colour of the rock is caused by iron oxide, which tells us that the layers were formed in a desert. The presence of ripple marks and channels in the sandstones, together with the remains of the long-extinct plants, insects, fish, amphibians and reptiles, show that the desert was crossed by fertile river valleys.
The “Otter Sandstone” is the richest source of Triassic reptile remains in Britain and one of the most important in the world. At the south-west end of the bay, the most common fossils in the sandstone are networks of vertical, tube-like carbonate petrifactions (rhizocretions): these represent the roots of plants that were able to survive in the harsh dry climate of the Triassic Period.[2]
The bay is sited on the same band of Sandstone that forms the oil reservoir at the Wytch Farm oilfield on the Isle of Purbeck.

I am an old dawg trying to learn new tricks...I have owned my GFX100S for a year and have never tried focus stacking...geez....so, this image is nothing but, stacked the images and then experimented with the ON1 Sky Replace feature....I add the moon (brush) first, mask the edges on the mountain ridge and then apply the sky effect.
Un experimento de stack focus, una técnica que me comentó hace poquito JCRUIZ y a la cual empiezo a ver el "gustillo".
La técnica de stack focus consiste en realizar varias tomas con diferentes planos de enfoque para combinarlos todos y obtener una toma general con una profundidad de campo mucho mayor de la ofrecida por el diafragma del objetivo, de este modo, podréis ampliar la cobertura de enfoque en macros y fotografías del estilo. Hay programas que al parecer realizan esta operación de una forma más o menos automática pero son para PC. Esta que os muestro está hecha en MAC y de forma y procesado manual mediante el empleo de 3 capas con planos de enfoque.

I like the stumbling, falling-yet-failed stacked-image effect, oddly enough. A mixed assortment from my garden.
This is a stack of 120 images (interval 5 sec; lapse time ~10 minutes), layers darkened and lightened then blended 50%-50% with Photoshop. Since the clouds remained nearly stationary, except for a drifting contrail at top, the image almost looks like a single frame image.
The phantom jeep was unavoidable.
