The Pembrokeshire coast around Ceridigion has some really interesting geology. Most of it is really only properly visible from offshore but here on the beach at New Quay it is possible to get up close.
I really like the different layers in the cliffs like the age rings of a tree laid down over millions of years.
I also love the rocks on the beach which are of a different material and look as if they have been melted and squeezed up out of the ground and in the final image the layer closest to the sand looks shiny and soft even though it is rock hard.
I went for a walk today at Bickerton Hill, on the Sandstone Trail overlooking the Cheshire Plains. I took a few pictures, some of which I will share over the next few days. At the end of the walk I decided to try something different.
I used the stump of a tree as a platform and selected some stones to build a cairn. After a few attempts I was able to make the stones stand up. I thought they looked good so took the first shot and then had a few more attempts as you can see. let me know in the comments below what you think...
More photos from Hilbre Island, today the theme is erosion and the pictures speak for themselves. Let me know which you like best...
