A large part of the Yorkshire Dales is comprised of limestone. Limestone kinda dissolves a bit in water and acid rain, so when the water runs through the cracks and joints in the limestone, it can create cool slabs called "clints" separated by deep fissures known as "grikes" or "grykes".

I love that the UK as a whole has managed to hold on to so many stone circles. There's something magical and mysterious about them, thinking about the thousands of years they've been there.

Thanks! This is a single exposure from a 210mm zoomed in composition. I saw the band of light hitting the distant house and moorland, with the Storr in deep shadow due to the storm above, so nabbed it quick as I could.

Well, yes, you're right. I should've said, "Failed sunset shoot".

Nope. Cross-stratification in sandstones. Each curved layer represents an ancient dune or ripple that migrated across a river channel or shallow sea floor.

Nailed it. This is especially true with football in the UK. People are literally born and brought up with the expectation of supporting a certain team.

This could easily be a film poster of some nature. Fantastic.

Well this is the Yorkshire Dales; there are caves everywhere. In fact, just south east of where this waterfall is one can follow the main public footpath to Jubilee Cave and Victoria Cave. 👍

It’s about a 60-foot drop. All the plants are bracken, which turns a lovely rusty hue in the autumn.

"Conservatism [...] can't be defeated with logic and reasoning"

This is the key point that a lot of people miss.

If you wholeheartedly, or at least performatively, believe that there is a "natural" hierarchy where some people are better than others, then what one might see as equality is seen as oppression by hardline conservatives.

This is why emotion is the key component of Trumpian messaging, regardless of veracity.

The key is to never play the game. Always proactivity act with questions, never "defend" and react with truth; they're not interested in the truth.

Hah, well this area is the land of caves and potholes, where there's all sorts of weird and wonderful names.

  • Juniper Gulf
  • Redundancy Hole
  • Braithwaite Wife Hole
  • Bull Pot of the Witches

And loads more.
