South Stack is famous as the location of one of Wales' most spectacular lighthouses, South Stack Lighthouse. It has a height of 41 metres (135 feet). It has a maximum area of 7 acres.
Until 1828 when an iron suspension bridge was built, the only means of crossing the deep water channel on to the island was in a basket which was suspended on a hemp cable. The suspension bridge was replaced in 1964, but by 1983 the bridge had to be closed to the public, due to safety reasons. A new aluminium bridge was built and the lighthouse was reopened for public visits in 1997. Thousands of people flock to the lighthouse every year, thanks to the continued public transport service from Holyhead's town centre.
There are over 400 stone steps down to the footbridge (and not, as local legend suggests, 365), and the descent and ascent provide an opportunity to see some of the 4,000 nesting birds that line the cliffs during the breeding season. The cliffs are part of the RSPB South Stack Cliffs bird reserve, based at Elin's Tower.
The Anglesey Coastal Path passes South Stack, as does the Cybi Circular Walk. The latter has long and short variants; the short walk is 4 miles long and takes around two hours to complete. Travelling from the Breakwater Country Park, other sites along the way are the North Stack Fog Signal station, Caer y Tŵr, Holyhead Mountain and Tŷ Mawr Hut Circles.
Q199 swings north a pair of EMDs in the lead. It's running nearly on yellows its following so closely behind A491.
Trying stuff. I was thinking that I'd add more of the black print and cut down on the busy look, but then I like busy, so I'm going with the last layout :)
Somebody must have spent several hours building this incredible rock tower in the middle of the Poudre River last weekend. I didn't expect to see something like this, and didn't have the equipment with me to do it justice. By the time I came back at the end of the day, it was gone.

I saw this stack of old wooden boxes in Palmyra, Tennessee (near Clarksville). Each box is a slightly different color with a slightly different grain. I really like all of the textures.
Driving through the countryside after visiting one of our favorite wineries I spotted this wonderful old barn with its snow covered roof and artistically stacked firewood
What the camera sees during a stacking session.
130 frames (approx)of stacking images.
These are then collated into one image for the final result.
This session shows the stacking both ways.
Haven't found anything today so thought I would upload an old stack attempt.
Tried on many occasions to get this to stack using CombineZp but it couldn't handle it , so tried Zerene Stacker on it tonight and it did a reasonable job.
I did not manage to get enough shots to focus all the legs and several are messed up.
Picture is a total of a 9 freehand shots , stacked and retouched in Zerene
