Mt Barney National Park We were driving back to Queensland in 2002 and were diverted through Kyogle onto the Mt Lindesay Highway. Took this photo and much later scanned it and mis-identified it until I had some help from the Park Rangers. "After a few messages to Rangers around the region the Mountain in your photo has been identified as Mt Lindsey (part of the Mt Barney National Park) in the Scenic Rim Southern Qld." 8 June 2012 Sunshine Coast / Burnett Region Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service. Elevation 1,177 m (3,862 ft) Mount Lindesay lies on the Queensland-New South Wales border, approximately 140 km south west of Brisbane, Australia. It is one of a number of peaks in the McPherson Range, and is remarkable for its tiered summit, the eroded remnant of lava flows from the nearby Focal Peak shield volcano. Mount Lindesay is situated within the Mount Barney National Park in Queensland and the Border Ranges National Park in New South Wales. Apart from the northern slopes, the rest of the peak is covered in dense rainforest, and the summit is frequently in cloud and mist. The Mount Lindesay Highway passes to the western side of Mount Lindesay. Wikipedia

Another example. The "ribs" standing out are finer-grained and thus more resistant than the rest of the granite.

White sand of the dunes and blooming heather in the ‘Noordhollands Duinreservaat’ (North-Holland Dune Reserve). This reserve is controlled by the provincial water company and stretches from Bergen aan Zee till the North Sea Canal nearby Wijk aan Zee. The area is open to the public (walker and cyclist), however an admission ticket is needed. The photo is taken along the Verspijckweg (a bike lane through the dunes) just north of the village of Bergen aan Zee.
