South Stack is set in a spectacular location a few miles to the north-west of Holyhead, it was completed in 1809.
An early morning shot with some nice clear conditions just before the inevitable rain started for the day, the oncoming rain meant plenty of moving clouds to use, a 2 minute exposure time streaking them right across the scene.

A sea stack is a large stack of rock in the sea that looks like a tall stone tower, separated from the main shoreline. They can occur wherever there is a water body and a cliff. Sea stacks can be found on all seven continents, and each highlights a subtle difference in how they are formed. Famous examples exist everywhere from Australia to Ireland, Iceland, and Russia. Some of them are long and flat, while others are tall, thin, and pointed.
Coastal erosion or the slow wearing of rock by water and wind over very long periods of time causes a stack to form. All sea stacks start out as part of nearby rock formations. Over millennia, wind and waves break the rock down. The force of the two creates cracks in the stone, and, little by little, cracks become chips, which fall off the main rock.
When enough chips fall off, holes are created that extend from one rock outcrop side to the other. Eventually, the wind and water break through to the other side, creating a cave or arch. Over many more generations, this arch also falls away, separating one part of the rock from the original cliff, resulting in the sea stack.

Almost perfect ant mimicry - also in the behaviour (running around wildly etc. )

Not everyone likes them but these small stacks dot the trails in Great Smoky Mountain Nat'l Park. Someone made an extra effort to stack these in the middle of Big Creek.

I've always been a little jealous of West Coast photographers, with their coast and mountains that haven't been flattened by the extreme glaciation we experienced here in Maine. Things are just more dramatic out there. I had never seen a sea stack in Maine outside of Monument Cove in Acadia, so finding this hidden gem was pretty exciting. I photographed it before about a few months ago, but the light wasn't stellar and I didn't have a good composition. As things lined up for what promised to be a great light show yesterday afternoon, I planned to come back and shoot sunset here. My brother said he would come with me, so off we went.
We arrived with seconds to spare to get set up and catch the best light. As things started going off, Zander said he could get up on the pinnacle and model for me. I said sure, but there didn't seem to be a good way to get up. I offered to do it myself and have him press the shutter, but he said 'f' it and started to clamber up what was an insanely difficult rock problem. He made it, I tripped the shutter, and captured one of my favorite photos in a long time.

These termite mounds are only a few minutes from my Dundee Beach block in the Northern Territory of Australia. I captured this image using the focus stacking app on my Nikon D850, it consists of 17 images that I rendered using Helicon Focus 7 software.

To find wild, rugged landscapes where very few people explore you don’t need to leave the UK. Just head north, about as far as you can go.
Think about the numbers; there are 10 million people living inside the M25, an area about the same size as the Isle of Skye on the West Coast of Scotland. In all of Scotland there are only 5.5 million people and 3.5 million of these people live in the central belt. Around the coast of the far north of Scotland you are in for a rare treat. Endless sea cliffs with amazing rock in a wild landscape - with nobody else around for miles - offering as much adventure as you’ll ever need. And then there’s the sea stacks to make it even more fun!
It's not what you think, it's what you see :-)
