As requested… a few more pictures from my trip up to Ogunquit, ME can be found here. Click on the thumbnails… you know the drill. Enjoy.

I’ve spent some time exploring the fascinating rock formations here at Bald Head cliff in Ogunquit, Maine. For those who want to follow me, I’ve put together a 2.2MB Quicktime movie with some overview and close-up shots of the complex stratification.

Sunrise was at 5:42am, and I came out onto the rocks below the hotel to watch it. I was fascinated by the heavily striated rocks, which have been folded so that the strata are vertical. Differential erosion makes the surface rather hard to walk on (which is why the horizon isn’t quite level…).
