Life on the stack
Life on the stack

During our phototour to Wales this Spring, which I guides, we paid a visit to South Stack Lighthouse. While the group were capturing the lighthouse, the hustle and bustle below us caught my eye. Although safety is in numbers, it must be a hard life on the stack.

Light conditions were good, however the sides of the stack were in shade. So I put up the ISO a little so that the fast moving birds would not blur out.

South Stack is an amazing place: cliffs, the lighthouse and thousands of birds (even puffins can be seen sometimes) are surrounded by the turquoise water of the Irish Sea.
