"Where the Mountains Meet the Sea". Echo Lake and Sommes Sound from Beach Mountain, Acadia National Park, Maine. From April 1981.

Beneath a clear blue sky we are standing on a light gray granite outcrop atop a mountain, looking out over the tops of a mixed forest of evergreens and leafless hardwoods running down the mountainside before us. Just beyond the trees on our left and just below us is a rocky crag with only a few stunted pines growing from crevices along its crest. A large deep blue pond dominates the view below in front of us. To our right a small rounded mountain rises from the pond's shore. Beyond the pond is a narrow, flat wooded strip of land backed by a long ocean inlet and then another relatively fat piece of land with a range of mountains to our right and scattered mountains along the horizon.

Limestone, seapinks and the ocean.

The limestone of the Irish coast can be seen in the foreground. Wall-like, jagged and interspersed with small pools of water and corridors full of pebbles. This picture was taken in spring, so the drier areas are overgrown with pink-coloured low-growing flowers and grass. The blue sea can be seen behind, stretching to the horizon where the high cliffs of Slieve League (Sliabh Liag) in Donegal can be seen in the blue haze. The blue sky with a few white clouds and the bright light of the Irish coast make the stone and flowers glow in the sun.

Historical Documentation in the form of a photograph of a rising sun over the ocean bay at the Historic Pioneer Village in Forest River Park, Salem, MA. The sky is filled with vibrant colors of pink, orange, and yellow, with the sun rising in the background behind the clouds. The water is calm and reflects the colors of the sky, creating a mirror-like effect. In the foreground, there are several boats and yachts docked in the harbor, with a few people walking along the shore. The harbor is surrounded by trees and buildings, and there is a small island in the distance. The overall mood of the image is peaceful and serene.

Ballysadare Bay

A bay at low tide. In front is the typical rippled, undulating sandy bottom, interspersed with puddles of seawater and small flat, overgrown sand hills. In the background, the opposite shore with dunes and the blurred Ox Mountains, set even further back, can be seen on the horizon. The sky is slightly cloudy.

Black Head for #seawednesday

We're in the Burren in Co. Clare again. It's a very special place. It is the only place in the world where Artic/Alpine and Mediterranean/Subtropical plants grow side by side. This is due to the unique karst landscape and its microclimate. It is home to about 1100 plant species out of the 1400 species in the whole of Ireland. There are also two butterflies that live there - The Pearl-Bordered Fritillary and the Brown Hairstreak which are not found anywhere else in Ireland.

Oh! There's also a really cute fox that my Dad has basically adopted.

A little over 5 million years ago, water from the Atlantic Ocean found a way through the present-day Strait of Gibraltar. According to this theory, oceanic water rushed faster than a speeding car down a kilometre-high slope towards the empty Mediterranean Sea, excavating a skyscraper-deep trough on its way. @ScienceAlert reports:

A high-angle, medium shot captures a gull interacting with a bright yellow tennis ball on a large, algae-covered rock surrounded by clear, rippling water. The gull is positioned centrally on the rock, appearing to nudge or play with the ball using its beak. Its wings are partially outstretched, revealing white and grey feathers. The rock itself is a mottled brown and green, showing signs of marine vegetation. The surrounding water is clear enough to see submerged rocks and algae beneath the surface. The overall lighting suggests it is daytime, with natural light illuminating the scene. The composition focuses on the interaction between the gull and the tennis ball within the natural environment.

#FootpathFriday with a throwback to #Cornwall. In 2013, we hiked the #SouthWestCoastPath from Penzance to St Ives in the baking August heat. As you can hopefully see in this low-quality photo, the #scenic views were glorious!

And those colours ...
