This is a view of the water powered Cliff Lift railway situated in Saltburn, Cleveland. This dates back to Victorian times and used to carry the "upper" classes up the cliff from the beach.

This was taken early in the morning hence the nice long shadow of the pier on the beach.

A cliff of "tuff rock", in Yellowstone National Park.

Along with the fascinating architecture and beautiful surroundings, one of the benefits of visiting Gila Cliff Dwellings National Monument is getting to learn more about the site from the park's staff.

They may be the most knowledgeable, friendly, and laid-back rangers that I have encountered at any national park or monument (and they're usually great at every park across the country).

One of the volunteer rangers posed for this shot so that I could provide a sense of scale in my image of the structures built inside Cave 4.

This load of grain has just passed through Ashcroft and is headed south(west) alongside the Thompson River.

The boat stopped on the way back so people could cliff dive if they wanted - here goes Hannah!

This was a porch on Jefferson Blvd In Oak Cliff. This was shot that took some thought on composing. Not sure how I would like this. Here is the end result. I like it.

If you look closely, you can see a trail hugging the cliff on the left side, and coming out just enough to get the best shots of the bridge.

We didn't take the trail. The clouds were ominous by this point, and some five minutes later, the sky opened up in huge droplets of rain that came down so hard and fast that they both hurt and immediately soaked you.

I'm sure that trail still felt *really safe* in the rain. ::twitch::

"Sacrifice Cliff is easily seen from many areas in Billings. The story I've heard is that a smallpox epidemic occurred during early contact of Native Americans with whites. The Natives had absolutely no immunity to the dreadful disease. Brave warriors road their horses off the cliff believing their sacrifice would save their people."

I had an image like this in my head when I saw the derelict Cliff Baths in Enniscrone. It's not often I "see" the B&W image before I press the shutter button, but this time I did.

If you really want to test your photo skills, try tracking these guys in flight (hand-holding a 600mm lens). These guys move like bullets.

Brazos Cliffs, NM in Chama Valley of Northern New Mexico. Taken from an overlook on US 64 in the Tusas Mountains.

I got a present from my brother while we were here - it was one of those lensbaby spark models. It's a fun lens where you push, pull and tilt to get the image in focus. And depending on how you use it, you can get tilt shift effects - making things really miniture looking. The cliff palace in Mesa Verde is actually really big (largest cliff dwelling in NA), and was said to hold up about 100 people
