Most Vancouverites will say we don't have cliffs around the city.
It just takes a little creative camera angles.
These rocks are not very tall at all.

The Cliffs of Moher are often crowded or in some cases shrouded in fog and clouds. Well, that was exactly the case earlier this day, but fortunately the clouds and crowds cleared late in the day for a gorgeous evening sunset. You can still see the low clouds lingering on the ocean.
On Faraid Head, near Durness in the far north west of Scotland. On a subsequent visit three years ago the stripes were far less prominent.
One from the archives, taken with my first DSLR and a Sigma zoom which was ok at the wide end but very soft on one side when zoomed in.
This image of RSPB Bempton Cliffs was taken in July 2014. I have uploaded it to show those that have never visited Bempton, what the area looks like. There are six viewing platforms along the length of the site and you can see a group of people stood on one of the platforms in the distance. A couple of the platforms are accessible to wheelchair users also. These platforms allow you to get great views of the various sea birds nesting on the sheer cliff faces. A great place to visit if you are ever in the area. There is a visitor centre on site with the usual shop, food and toilet facilities.
Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fav my images.
An oldie from four years ago.

Fulmar has a remarkable breeding history, its North Atlantic population originally restricted to St Kilda and an island off the coast of Iceland. The last 250 years have seen a remarkable expansion in Fulmar populations and the colonisation of suitable sites around Iceland, Britain, Ireland, northwest France and sections of the Norwegian coast. The reasons for the expansion are unclear.
Young Fulmars spend their first four or five years at sea, before visiting the colonies at which they will then breed. Even then, they will not breed themselves until they are nine years of age and reach sexual maturity. (BTO).
My thanks to everyone who viewed, faved or commented on this photo. It is much appreciated.

Swallows on the ground, both males and females, typically raise and flutter their wings in an effort to prevent those unwelcome matings. At the same time, their gathering behaviour makes them more vulnerable.
