The cliffs along the south of Land's End is simply amazing with golden yellow rocks extending straight from the sea and topped with "tor" like rocks above.
This is a 5-shot panorama and I am quite happy how it came out considering all the wind and spray.
In my hometown there is saying: "Ka od stine odvaljen" (strong man compared to a rock detached from cliff). Interestingly enough, most guys originating from this region are often told this saying. Just saying :)
RIP Cliff Burton
Another view of North Clear Creek Falls not far from Creede in Colorado. The creek has carved a small canyon over the millenia and the falls probably were higher before the canyon was cut. This creek drains into the Rio Grande closer to Creede and like the Rio Grande, the water flow was up this year because of above normal snow in the nearby mountains last winter. The walls of the canyon are volcanic welded tuff (hot ash deposits fused into rock) from numerous large explosive eruptions in the area around 25 to 30 million years ago.
The Cliffs of Moher are a popular site along the west coast of Ireland, and it's easy to see why.
Thanks for looking!
'The Cliffs of Moher (/ˈmʌhər/; Irish: Aillte an Mhothair)[1] are sea cliffs located at the southwestern edge of the Burren region in County Clare, Ireland.[2][3] They run for about 14 kilometres (9 miles). At their southern end, they rise 120 metres (390 ft) above the Atlantic Ocean at Hag's Head, and, 8 kilometres (5 miles) to the north, they reach their maximum height of 214 metres (702 ft) just north of O'Brien's Tower,[4] a round stone tower near the midpoint of the cliffs, built in 1835 by Sir Cornelius O'Brien,[2][5] then continue at lower heights. The closest settlements are the villages of Liscannor 6 km (4 miles) to the south, and Doolin 7 km (4 miles) to the north.' - wiki
