The image depicts a scenic view of coastal cliffs and natural rock formations, specifically highlighting the famous Gifford's Leap or Tor Rock arch in Torquay, England. This geological feature is characterized by its distinctive overhanging rocks creating an arch-like structure above the sea.

The photograph appears to be an old postcard with faded colors typical of early 20th-century photochrom prints. It shows a serene landscape where the cliffs are adorned with patches of vegetation and birds can be seen flying in the sky, adding life to the scene. The ocean is depicted as calm with shades of blue-green water.

The image has an aged look due to its vintage nature, suggesting that it could have been taken between approximately 1890 and 1900 based on the style and condition of the photograph. This particular view showcases Torquay's natural beauty, emphasizing both geological formations and coastal scenery in England during a time when such landscapes were often captured for leisure or tourism purposes.

#Sedona #Arizona series day 2 of 5: #DevilsBridge, a #NaturalArch of #RedRocks over open air.
#Hiking from the #DevilsBridgeTrailhead, the #DesertLandscape stays quiet until you reach the edge.
Would you step onto the arch, or stop one foot before it?

Die Qawra Inland Sea bei Dwejra ist eine kleine Lagune, die über einen tunnelartigen Durchbruch im Kalkstein mit dem offenen Meer verbunden ist. Die Felswände zeigen Schichten und Bruchlinien, an denen sich die langsamen Bewegungen und Spannungen im Gestein ablesen lassen. Fischerboote und Ausflugsschiffe passieren bei ruhiger See die enge Öffnung; heute aber drücken sich kräftige Wellen hindurch und machen deutlich, wie stark die Brandung weiterhin an der Küstenform arbeitet.

Das natürliche Felsentor im Tal von Wied il-Mielaħ haben Wind, Wasser und Wellen über Jahrtausende aus dem Kalkstein herausgearbeitet. Seine Form wirkt zugleich fragil und dauerhaft; das Ergebnis fortgesetzter Erosion. An diesem Tag schlagen die Wellen mit besonderer Wucht gegen die Klippen und lassen den Lärm des Meeres in der engen Bucht widerhallen.

The view of La Ventana Arch just gets better as Ranger Sarah gets closer. The eastern escarpment of the Cebollita Mesa consists of cliffs of Jurassic Zuni Sandstone capped by Cretaceous Dakota Sandstone. The arch formed in the Zuni Sandstone.

"Snow, graced by an arch of fire". My wintry photograph from Bryce Canyon, bringing off that rare vibe of white snow on red rock that's oh-so-delightful this time of year.

Black and white image: At over 90m long, Landscape Arch is the longest of the many rock arches located in Arches National Park, Utah.  The weathered and eroded structure is almost impossibly slender and delicate; rising in a bow-shaped arc between two sandstone buttresses.
