Ooh, now, this was my part of the world. Did you see the Winking Man?

I didn't. We came across the rocks by accident and I had no idea "he" was there until afterwards.

I love the clarity in those shots. Every detail in the rocks is so clear.

It's a place I'd never been before. We happened upon it whilst driving at random down country roads.
Staffordshire is in the industrial Midlands. I really don't associate it with this sort of scenery.

Nice! But I think the Brimham Rocks in Yorkshire just beat them!
Unfortunately, our weather wasn't half as nice as yours:-(

I haven't been to Brimham Rocks. I'll put them on the list.
I was amazingly lucky with the light.

There is poetry in rocks. For me, the epitome of peace is found sitting on a rock looking off into the distance and letting my thoughts go free.
Great pictures! Thanks to you I have vicariously visited your lovely country.

Rocks are just so old. Millions upon millions of years. They connect us to the far distant past.

Thank you.
The more pictures you take, the more you know what you're doing....
