Never Too Stable Cliff

Never Too Stable Cliff


This was taken at the beach of the Gibson's Steps. This caught my eyes. Notice the strength of the "hill" of the sand at the background. The "hill" there are taller and thus heavier. However, the hill at the foreground had shown sign of weakness in the structure even though it is much shorter compared to the one at the back.



The Gibson Steps are an area of cliffs on the south coast of Australia, located at 38°40′06″S, 143°06′43″E. The cliffs are the first sightseeing stopoff in Port Campbell National Park for travellers heading West along the Great Ocean Road, located about 5 minutes drive away from The Twelve Apostles. The name Gibson Steps refers to the staircase leading down to the stretch of beach.
