These massive Limestone Stacks provide home for nesting seabirds for part of the year. They are named after the Guillemot's that thrive here, Elegug being the Welsh word for them.
I visited 3 times during my weeks stay here and got very different conditions. This particular evening the light was pretty good, but the sky was spectacular. I tried a few different techniques, LE, Grads and this one with a circular polariser which gave more emphasis on that sky (Not to everyones taste I'm sure).
I had the place more or less to myself on all 3 evenings, which was a surprise. The dry weather had certainly killed off a lot of the cliff top foliage, but I did manage to use this hardy little plant to provide a modicum of foreground interest.
An eastbound CSX stack train flies underneath ancient New York Central signals and a dramatic sunrise in Buffalo, New York. To my understanding, these classic signals have since been replaced.
South Stack Lighthouse, the iconic view for anyone who goes to South Stack, I keep saying I have taken enough, but then think well one more...
My trusty magnetic measuring spoons, dressed up for Macro Monday.
I had the "clever idea" of putting different colors of water in each spoon, but ended up spilling it instead. But as I started to clean up, I noticed the spilled dye made great color reflections and --- voila!
The spoons are 2 inches long from front to back and 1.5 inches tall.

One of my favorite, more colorful stack trains on this route heads by the transitway with a sea of red stacks in tow. They will make a quick stop for a crew change at 44th Avenue before heading across the Staples Sub.
Stacking every little pretty penny that I'm getting
And I'm never giving in to anybody, always winning
Never kidding when I die, I'm taking everybody with me
You're never gonna get me 'cause you'll never see it simply
I'm a motherfucking god, you're a light yawn, I'm a time bomb
And the vibes wrong, is this mic on?
I'm killing the syllables with a loaded refillable
I'm a lyrical, typical super villain, I'm venomous
And I'm never gonna stop until they put me on top of the list
I can't control the monster any longer that's inside
Typically this west facing side of the Golden Gate Bridge is inaccessible due to water height. Minus tides this week really open up Marshall's Beach so one can walk right up to this massive steel & concrete structure. Fun shoot with Alvin Tenpo .
My fist outing with the newly purchased Z8.
This was my prize for a lightning chase that was a bust. It turned out to be an evening of many rainbows, including this beautiful and brilliant short stack over the Manzano Mountains. It was so dreamy with the pouring rain in the background yet interfering with the sharpness of the lines. Los Lunas, New Mexico USA
This will be my first in a series of at least 3 rainbow compositions that I shot during this sunset. At least I intend to do that.

The "stacked" bubbles of Abraham Lake are indeed interesting, especially when they form stacks with interesting shapes like you see here. We had a fun time finding cool bubbles like these to photograph!
Picked some shells from a nearby beach sometime ago.
The smallest shell on top is about half an inch.
For Macro Mondays, Stack.
A lovely visit to South Stack Lighthouse with my brother. We gave this location three chances for colour. First evening, you couldn't see it, the fog was so thick. Next morning was promising and it gave colour, greens, blues and greys but sadly no lovely sunrise and then again in the evening, it was not too be. Ended up coming home early, due to a raging tooth infection and swollen face, so there will be a revisit!
A sea stack is a large stack of rock in the sea that looks like a tall stone tower, separated from the main shoreline. They can occur wherever there is a water body and a cliff. Sea stacks can be found on all seven continents, and each highlights a subtle difference in how they are formed. Famous examples exist everywhere from Australia to Ireland, Iceland, and Russia. Some of them are long and flat, while others are tall, thin, and pointed.
Coastal erosion or the slow wearing of rock by water and wind over very long periods of time causes a stack to form. All sea stacks start out as part of nearby rock formations. Over millennia, wind and waves break the rock down. The force of the two creates cracks in the stone, and, little by little, cracks become chips, which fall off the main rock.
When enough chips fall off, holes are created that extend from one rock outcrop side to the other. Eventually, the wind and water break through to the other side, creating a cave or arch. Over many more generations, this arch also falls away, separating one part of the rock from the original cliff, resulting in the sea stack.
South Stack Lighthouse, located on a small islet, Ynys Lawd, off the coast of Anglesey in Wales, is a historic lighthouse built in 1809. It was built by Trinity House to mark the treacherous rocks below and guide ships on the Dublin-Holyhead-Liverpool route. Known for its dramatic location on steep cliffs, it is accessible via a staircase of 400 steps. For a fee visitors can tour the former engine room and climb to the top of the lighthouse. South Stack is a wonderful place to watch thousands of breeding seabirds including guillemots, razorbills and puffins.
No.1 Croydon office block (formerly called NLA Tower, but also nicknamed the 50p building because of its multi-sided shape).
Designed in a brutalist style by architect Richard Seifert & Partners and completed in 1970.

I happened to be in Anglesey this weekend, staying not too far from South Stack. So armed with my filters I headed over, and timed my arrival just after the sun had set.

The fantastic view from the top of the University Library in Helsinki. I had to resist the strong urge to drop something on the guy below :)

On this morning of May 11, 2019, there seemed to be stack trains all over the place in Salt Lake City. Here is another westbound/Northbound coming through downtown.

After Oliver Wright's great presentation last week at our camera club I thought I would try a bit of stacking. (Seeing as the rain has stopped gardening today) hope you like, but comments welcome....
8 images used..
I waited at this spot on the Chattooga River until dark hoping a colorful sunset would emerge but the sky just turned gray instead, This image was made about 1/2 hour before sunset when the setting sun illuminated the underside of the clouds, casting a golden light on the water. I got a nice 2 hour hike in the dark back to my truck, but a lovely day on the river, so worth it.
