Seen a few rock stacking on the Appalachian trail, near Mcaffee knob in Virginia. I think stacking rocks has been a pastime since humans could pick up rocks...
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.

Ruff & Ready Furnishings

Ruff and Ready is a hipster’s dream. It is only open on the weekends. It is technically antique but has the stacked inventory of a thrift store. All prices end in the number 7 and the owner doesn’t know why, its just tradition. It’s not super cheap, but they will bargain with you. It is one of those perfect places that locals have known about for ages and new residents need to know about immediately. ~ from i spy things DC
“Ruff & Ready Furnishings is a classic, old-fashioned 'Junque' store that sells good, usable furniture," says owner Bill Troy, who unearths the majority of his pre-1950s finds from estates and at Sloan and Weschler auctions. The 5,000-square-foot space, divided into two areas by an outdoor space filled with wrought-iron tables, glass blocks now popular for room dividers, planters and various other garden furniture and accessories, is packed to the rafters.

A stack of chairs outside Mortons on Byres Road. Mortons is a fantastic little cafe and its pretty cheap too - if they scrapped the expensive wifi it would be perfect for my pre-lecture coffee.

Stacked (2 frames) with CombineZP.
In order to preserve the overall brown I avoided messing with the colour balance. Couldn't take a version with the antennae on focus. There are a couple of blurs there corresponding to them.
Obtido pela combinação de duas fotos no CombineZP. De modo a preservar o marrom geral, evitei mexer com o equilíbrio de cores. Não consegui uma versão mostrando as antenas. Há uns borrões na imagem que correspondem a elas.
Created from 10 x 10 second exposures stacked using sequator.
Its my first attempt at anything like this, and overdone for my taste so will probably have another go at processing it with more family-friendly settings

This was taken from a footbridge in the High Line Park in NYC.
The steward was ushering people on so as not to clog up the gangway, but the view of this car park was on one side and a panoramic view of the High Line was on the other so photographers weren't really listening.

--stack poems are composed of stacked up book titles. A little challenging and a lot of fun; a good project for when you're organizing shelves.

A small sugar ant composite based on 30 individual photos; its my first image using my diy automatic macro machine
The machine essentially moves the camera in very small increments via a stepper motor and takes a picture at each position. Its all controlled over USB using some hardware and software I built myself.
The individual pictures are stacked together in software to obtain a sharp output image.

South Stack (Welsh: Ynys Lawd) is an island situated just off Holy Island on the North West coast of Anglesey. It is famous as the location of one of Wales' most spectacular lighthouses.
30 Meter bewegte See trennen die kleine Insel South Stack Rock von Holyhead Island. Bis 1828 war die einzige Verbindung zum Felsen ein an einem Hanfseil befestigter Korb, in dem sowohl Waren als auch Personen transportiert wurden. Die damals gebaute Eisenbrücke wurde 1964 durch eine Aluminiumbrücke ersetzt.
1997 wurde die inzwischen wegen Sichereitsmängeln geschlossene Brücke durch eine neue Brücke ersetzt. Seitem ist South Stack Rock mit seinem Leuchtturm im Sommerhalbjahr für Besucher zugänglich. Bevor man die Brücke überqueren kann muss man allerdings etwa 400 in die Klippen gehauene Stufen hinabsteigen.
