hope to make it to the upper caves today.
For Sliders Sunday. started with a sand pile, now a mountain.
The slave cliff Traelanipa which you can find on the island Vagar, one of the many islands of the Faroe islands is a mythical place. It´s called the slave cliff, as long ago it was the place where the slaves which got too old or weak had to make their last travel from the cliff into the sea. The whole place is rough and standing there with a pumping heart from a vertigo attack. That's where I took my pano shot.

Out yesterday with Pauls Pix 53 and ianbartlett for a 12 mile circular walk from Hastings to Fairlight.
This is looking back ... we walked along the cliff tops and down and up the sides of the glens. On another day, we might walk the shoreline, but will have be well certain of the tide.
This large -scale mountain abstract was taken on Baffin Island. I call it large scale because the cliff was about 500-600 meters high.
It was located just across the Mount Asgard on Turner Glacier. This is one of those unplanned photos. I was hiking across the glacier on this cold afternoon, looking for possible compositions to shoot aurora later in the night.
As I was passing by this granite wall, I stopped for a while to put on another layer of clothing. I took a moment to look around and I noticed a warm sunset light illuminating the face of this rock. The combination of cold surrounding and the warm light created interesting view. This cold-warm contrast combined with all converging lines of the cliff caught my eye so I decided to capture it.
Stunning sunset view. Took me a while to get there. But the scenery didn't disappoint at all. Somewhere along the southern part of Mauritius.
Cliffs at a scenic stop along the Nullarbor.
I've been away travelling but have arrived home with only a few 'photography' images. Sad to say that most of them are just the travel kind but that's the result of enjoying the trip rather than concentrating on photography.
Cliff Palace is the largest cliff dwelling in North America. The structure built by the Ancient Pueblo Peoples is located in Mesa Verde National Park in their former homeland region.
Somehow, no visit to Bridgnorth is complete without a trip to the Cliff Railway - opened in 1892 and still going strong today.
I see there's a vacancy for a relief operator in the window - heck, I'd almost work there for nothing!

Oia remains one of the foremost tourist attractions of the Aegean Sea, she is brilliant in white and blue. Her homes and churches cling to the side of cliffs... and that give them fabulous views of the sea and sunsets. Hundreds of folks line up each evening to see the colorful sky as the sun sets, so come and join us. Then we will walk the cobblestone alleys and find some music and vino to pass the night away.
This dwelling in Mesa Verde NP is the largest cliff dwelling in North America. It has over 150 rooms, and 23 kivas. The round kivas were used in ceremonies. Built and occupied from 1190 CE through 1260. Best theory as to why the Puebloans left was a megadrought. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
A cliff of ignimbrite rises near Ponta do Mistério on the Island of Terceira in the Azores. Ignimbrites are deposited by very hot clouds of ash; pumice, lithic blocks/fragment and gases. Called pyroclastic flows by geologists, these flows are dense and because of their density, hug the ground at high speeds. The volcanic cone rising behind the cliff in the fog is part of the volcanic complex associated with the Pico Alto volcano.
Bemtpon Cliffs June 2015. My favourite Sea birds.
I took the 5D Mark III out of moth balls for the weekend and commandeered Ian's 300 mm lens. Suffice to say I want a 300mm lens now.
Many thanks for the faves and comments, they are all very much appreciated.
I absolutely cannot wrap my mind around living like this. Just getting to the cliff dwellings would have been a struggle for me as I have a huge fear of heights.
