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. :-)

Another attempt at some astrophotography, but this time I used the university library to try give some interest or context to the scene. I probably should have waited until later to get a darker sky as I'm not too keen on the blue cast of the sky.
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.
Looking up at the Baker Hotel in Mineral Wells, Texas from the circle drive around back. Shot in November 2008.
For more information or images (inside and out) on this decaying Texas landmark, see my Baker Hotel Set Page.
Looking at this image now, I'm struck by how similar the ambient lighting here is to the lighting at the Michigan Central Depot in Detroit, Michigan. The lower portion of the building illuminated by the greenish mercury vapor light, the upper floors lit with the more orangish/yellow of sodium vapor light.
Gotta go large on black with this one...

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.
This is a smoke stack on the Port Washington Generating Station. The plant is gas fired. On a cold day like today, the emissions are really visible.

This was taken with f16, Panasonic 45-175mm and Raynox DCR-150. The interresting thing about some telezoom lenses is, that their sharpest possible aperture in combination with raynox dcr lenses is f16, and the picture quality is much above the native quality of the teelezoom lens. In stacking f16 brings often much better results than f4, because of the smaler seams around overlapping objects.
