South Stack Lighthouse was built by Trinity House in 1809, marking a tiny islet off Anglesey at the north west tip of Wales. The lighthouse is built on Ynys Lawd, a small rocky island just off the edge of Holy Island, which itself is an island just barely separate from the main part of Anglesey Island.

These huge sea stacks are located at Duncansby Head, the far North Easterly point of the UK mainland, very close to John o Groats. I wasn't quite prepared for just how impressive they are in real life, they are magnificent. The beach there is fantastic for foregrounds which I've tried to capture the essence of here. The day wasn't the best for photography and so I waited until there was a hint of the coming twilight before I took the shot.
This was part of a curtailed trip doing the NC500 route and can be seen in my latest vlog here: youtu.be/AyCevz-0vUY
3 Ge's lead a stack train into Kenova Wv, Neat seeing this impressive bridge over town and the Ohio river.
A lone sea stack off the beach at the end of Tin Pot Track with Cape Liptrap in the background.

made this one today in an old abbandonned ware house full of white walls ;) .. you will be seeing some more pieces at this spot in the future..
peace!
The South Stack Lighthouse has warned passing ships of the treacherous rocks below since its completion in 1809. The 91-foot (28m)-tall on South Stack was designed by Daniel Alexander and the main light is visible to vessels for 28 miles, and was designed to allow safe passage for ships on the treacherous Dublin-Holyhead-Liverpool sea route. It provided the first beacon along the northern coast of Anglesea for east-bound ships.It is followed by other lighthouses, fog horns and other markers at North Stack, Holyhead Breakwater, The Skerries, The Mice, Point Lynas and at the south-east tip of the island Trwyn Du. The lighthouse is now operated remotely by Trinity House.
Visitors can climb to the top of the lighthouse and tour the engine room and exhibition area.
PLEASE VIEW LARGE! As an added point of interest, there are exactly 400 steps down to reach the island!!
This amazing stack is at Cathedral Cove Beach, Coromandel Peninsula, NZ.
Very many thanks to Nick Twyford www.flickr.com/photos/67654596@N04
I spent a number of memorable days in his company visiting various locations around Coromandel.Peninsula and out to West coast beach's
On this occasion we trekked down to Cathedral Cove from Hahei with our torches at 0430hrs hoping to find an empty beach and catch a sunrise. Unfortunately no clouds.
A magical time..

This focus stack turned out better, although the constant wind was giving me a hard time. Still room for improvement, and maybe next time under better environmental conditions.
This stacked and lightened image used 8 images taken over 8 minutes while this storm was about 16 miles away. I cropped this image about 30% from the original.
Vintage luggage stacked at King's Cross Station, Universal Studios. I love all the luggage stacked, so you may see more of it. I let hundreds of people pass me in line so I could get these shots, and then I didn't even ride the train.
This 320x2s stacked image was lightened in Photoshop. Fire Skies are one of the best uses of this type of post-processing. In this equivalent 12 minute exposure the lenticular cloud was nearly stationary while the cirrus clouds were streaking as wisps. The bright white (and lighter blue) lines at middle left are the initial form of spreading contrails.

A double stack train for the Ports of LA and Long Beach is next in a long parade of westbounds at Verdemont. In the background, M-BARSDG rests on the main. Cargill's grain elevator is visible on the left side of the frame.
A stack of quite a few images of the New York Cityscape from New Jersey. The intent was to shoot a time lapse of the sunset, and that turned out well, but I think a stack of the images works pretty nicely too.
Normally I blend stacked images in Photoshop by using lighten or darken. This time I used the "difference" bending mode with 46 images. This blend resulted in extracting the wave pattern of the high thin cirrocumulus clouds. The texture is almost like a finger print.
Difference:
Looks at the color information in each channel and subtracts either the blend color from the base color or the base color from the blend color, depending on which has the greater brightness value. Blending with white inverts the base color values; blending with black produces no change.

Post-sunset, blue hour view of multiple sea stacks on Bandon Beach on a clear but windy summer evening. I used a 10-stop filter to extend the exposure to get a smooth glaze on the water's surface.

This is a set of sport stacking cups. We have some world class stackers here in Heppenheim. Here you can see the world record by Robin Stangenberg from my hometown (please don't forget to come back to my picture and leave a comment ;-): player.broadbandvideo.com/asxgen.asp?ShowOrClip=c&Med...

South Stack is an island known as a Sea Stack. It was formed by the wave erosion of sedimentary rocks that once connected the island to the mainland.
The area is known geologically as the South Stack Formation. Its strata includes sandstones and interbedded shales which have been contorted by large folds and crumples. The folds can be seen in the seacliffs. Thick beds of pure Holyhead Quartzite, which forms the bulk of Holyhead Mountain, lie above these folded sedimentary rocks. Recent studies suggests the rocks appearance was caused by large scale earth movements which is not a part of the normal sedimentary process; however, this theory remains controversial. Similar evidence of upthrusts can be seen in the cliffs to the south of South Stack.
