It was quite a sight looking up at the scene on this rocky beach, rocks/large pebbles stacked right across the beach in towers.
South Stack Lighthouse is built on the summit of a small island off the north-west coast of Holy Island Anglesey Wales. It was built in 1809 to warn shipping in the Irish Sea of the dangerous rocks below.
I've seen such stacks often when hiking to mark trails that are off the beaten path. But I never knew people did it for....fun?.....boredom?......because they can? Thanks to Google, I found out they are called cairns and date back hundreds of years. Over the years they have come to mean many things

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.
volunteering for the first day of Bumbershoot involved lots and lots of moving huge stacks of programs, and very little time to take pictures.

I don't have space for a lot of stuff in my room. Thinking about investing in a big plastic bin to hold all my photo stuff. Messy, unorganized stacks of instax & polaroids. A lot of my favorite photos in there.

This photo was a test of a Nikkor 75-300mm f/4.5-5.6 AF Zoom lens I purchased used. It is zoomed in all the way and was mounted on a Nikon D300. This is a great lens.

Just a fun line art piece I did last week. I did a little video showing the progressive phases of this as one as I was drawing it out. You can see it on my YouTube channel or on my rainbowelephant.com blog.
To display how much articulation their modified suspension have, these Jeep owners stacked them during the 2005 Holley Dodge Keep America Powerful All-Truck Show. The goal (when rock crawling) is to keep all 4 wheels in contact with the ground, to maintain maximum traction. These Jeeps have had their stock suspensions modified with what is known as a long arm suspension in the front and a 4-link suspension in the rear , which is designed to allow for maximum suspension travel. These fairly new Jeeps show obvious signs of "Hard" trail use.
