These cliffs mark near enough the high point of the island of Malta. They are exposed and were particularly windy when we visited.
An observatory can be seen at the far left and what looks like a lookout tower on the right.
The white cliffs stretching from Swanage to Handfast Point on the Dorset coast mark the most easterly stretch of the Jurassic Coast.
Pinnacle rock can be seen with its diamond, pointed shape and Old Harry Rock in the distance. The town of Bournemouth can be seen in the distance.

On the Southern slope of the crater wall in Crater Lake National Park, is a colorful formation of pumice called Pumice Castle, or Castle Rock. The pumice, from an explosive eruption about 70,000 years ago was buried by the Redcloud Cliff flow, and then exposed again when the caldera collapsed. Over the past 7,700 years rain and wind have eroded the pumice into the towers and battlements of a medieval castle.
Some rocks at the West Port in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Some of you may recognize the place from Game of Thrones.
Going from Paltsi to Mortia (a difficult but beautiful route), you can see the steep cliffs of South Pelion and the Cape of Sipiada. On our left we see part of the island of Skiathos (Banana beach), while in the background we can see the mountains of Euboea.

You can see the Balcón de Europa from the top of the rocky coast of Carabeo Beach. This beach is kind of hidden from view because of the cliffs that surround it, but you can easily find it walking down Calle Carabeo from the center of Nerja. To access the beach you will need to use a set of very steep steps to walk down into this cove surrounded by massive rocks on both sides.

South Stack, Anglesey, Wales
South Stack is an island situated just off #HolyIsland on the northwest coast of #Anglesey. It is famous as the location of one of Wales' most spectacular #SouthStackLighthouse. The cliffs are 130m high on average. Standing here you can see sea traffic in the Irish sea between Belfast and Liverpool and Cardiff. The jagged rocks and monoliths at the base offer a spectacular view with shallow, emerald waters - and are as deadly should you trip and fall.
These #Precambrian cliffs are one of my favourite in the whole of UK, and are home to some of the most important sea bird colonies in #Wales. During June and July the sea cliffs here are packed with sea birds - mainly auks including puffin, razorbill and guillemot.
From the cliff tops here you can look down and watch the birds swimming, as they fly underwater in search of fish and sand eels.
During the breeding season up to 3,000 Guillemots and 700 Razorbills will nest here, precariously balancing their eggs on the narrow ledges.
You'll also find a small Puffin colony here and predatory Great Blacked-backed Gulls swooping down to grab chicks from any unattended nests.
Aside from the bird life, #SouthStack is also famed for its plant life and one plant in particular, can only be found here in the whole of Britain.
The plant in question is known as the Spathulate Fleawort and is a rather plain yellow flower, not dissimilar to a tall daisy with yellow petals. You'll find it growing along the edges of the sea cliffs, so tread carefully.

RSPB Bempton Cliffs.
Northern Gannets inhabit the North Atlantic, breeding on rocky cliffs and islands along the coasts of Eastern Canada, Greenland, Iceland, and Western Europe.
They are particularly numerous around the British Isles, with significant colonies in Scotland. A visit to reserves like Bempton Cliffs in the northeast of England, Troup Head in Scotland or, for the more adventurous, Noup Cliffs in Orkney is recommended.
During non-breeding seasons, they disperse widely across the North Atlantic and into the Mediterranean, with some individuals reaching West Africa. In North America, they can be seen along the eastern seaboard.
Gannets can be seen off the east coast of the USA from the New England coast all the way to the Gulf of Mexico. (Bird Fact).
The heading is from “The Jungle Book”. The vultures near the end of the Disney cartoon/movie, which at the time (1967) paid homage to “The Beatles”. I know these aren’t Vultures, the photo just reminded me of them!
All comments and favs are much appreciated.
"Consequently, it followed logically that telling lies could not be sins. The chaplain had mastered, in a moment of divine intuition, the handy technique of protective rationalisation, and he was exhilarated by his discovery. It was miraculous. It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honour, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.”

This was not the midnight sun but was shot on the longest day of the year looking down the coast from Bempton towards Bridlington. I liked the light on the cliffs
I noticed I even got a fence in the shot
THANKS FOR YOUR VISITING BUT CAN I ASK YOU NOT TO FAVE AN IMAGE WITHOUT ALSO MAKING A COMMENT. MANY THANKS KEITH
A photographic cliché, but still gorgeous enough to take your breath away. Its tough to appreciate the scale, until you realize that the tiny specks on top of the cliffs are people.
Mesa Verde National Park.
After leaving Moab, I headed off to Farmington, NM with a quick stop at Mesa Verde. Since this was still in prime COVID season, most everything in the park was either closed or not very accessible.
Cliff Palace is the largest and most well know ruin in the park, but access was closed. This was taken at a pullout across the canyon.
