Cliff Hangers




In stark contrast to the bright colours of my posts of the past two days I have gone for these black and white images showing off the geology of Wales' Cardigan Bay coastal cliffs. 

Seen from a boat in the bay it is possible to see the many different layers that form the cliffs and the undulating patterns which clearly show the upheaval over time. The different layers provide excellent nesting sites for the Guillemots and Kittiwakes that have made their temporary homes here facing out to sea. On a day like this when the sun was shining and there was hardly any breeze t doesn't seem like too bad a spot but when the wind and rain lashes in off the Irish Sea I am sure it is a lot more challenging spot to raise a family.
