Smile on Saturday : Stacked

“The books transported her into new worlds and introduced her to amazing people who lived exciting lives. She went on olden-day sailing ships with Joseph Conrad. She went to Africa with Ernest Hemingway and to India with Rudyard Kipling. She travelled all over the world while sitting in her little room in an English village.”

This was a fun focus stack under unique conditions with a couple good friends.

These 60m sea stacks tower high above the ferocious and unpredictable water of the North Sea. It is a land truly carved by time and stands as a monument to the destructive power of nature in this part of the world.

It's taken me a while (well, two years actually) to get this photo as I like it... Epic place whatever the weather.

WEEKLY THEMES Wednesday: "Free Theme" "Stacked"

An abstract detail of the architecture of the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.

Multi-colored cargo containers wait to be unloaded from the ship HS Bach at the Port of Freeport, Bahamas.

I stubbled across this beautiful cliff top scene whilst out on a coastal walk yesterday. It was a nice surprise to find these stacks sitting there, I never knew they existed!

Looking forward to capturing them again under some better conditions.

The town of Vik the Southernmost town in Iceland is famous for its black basalt sand and the imposing Reynisdrangar sea stacks.

Vik is definitely one of my favorite places to visit in Iceland not because the town has a great cafe that sells a wonderful bowl of lamb goulash but because it has so many photography opportunities on its doorstep. Just being able to walk the few hundred yards from the hotel to this beautiful beach and gaze at the majestic sea stacks is a real treat.

Thankfully the day we arrived the conditions were perfect with a nice pink glow in the sky as the sun began to set, unfortunately things went down hill rapidly thereafter as future photos will show!

Another image from my trip to the woods. Some loverly colours and light amongst the tall beeches.
