The Crack

Cliff erosion is constant due to wind, tidal wave action, rain and temperature changes. A year ago this crack was not visible in the giant Jurassic era sandstone formation.

When I discovered it I could not help myself but hum Leonard Cohen’s “Anthem,” especially the passage ‘There is a crack in anything… That’s how the light gets in…’. One wonders how much longer this sandstone formation will be around for us to experience.
