Månafossen

Månafossen is a waterfall in Gjesdal Municipality in Rogaland county, Norway. The 92-metre (302 ft) tall waterfall is located along the river Månaåna, about 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) east of the end of the Frafjorden where the village of Frafjord is located. The waterfall is in a fairly isolated area. There is a parking area nearby with a steep, rough 250-metre (820 ft) hiking trail up a mountainside to see the waterfall. The hike takes about 50 minutes.
Getting up to the top of the waterfall meant using posts and chains to get up the steeper parts of the climb. Adrian and his sister, who was afraid of heights, were nearing the top of the mountain, but there was still a bit of scrambling to do to get to the top of the falls. It was definitely worth the effort.

Happisburgh coastal erosion
| |

The village of Happisburgh in Norfolk is being consumed by coastal erosion. The coastline on which the village sits is being eroded by the sea at a rate of 12 metres per year. I have been visiting this area for the past 3 years, and have seen this rapid deterioration with my own eyes. Buildings have toppled down the cliffs, and caravan sites have had to be moved. A new car park has had to be constructed - the last one is no longer there. The sea is relentless, and the cliffs are very fragile. On the day this photo was taken, the sea was quiet, but storms last winter caused much devastation.

I spent a very chilly couple of hours on the first day of Advent, watching the sun slowly rise on the calm water of this fjord.
Grass of Parnassus. Parnassia palustris
| |
|
|
|
A flower of cold beauty and a symbol of 'the wilderness and wetlands'.
Also known as the 'bog star', it isn't actually a grass at all, belonging to an entirely different botanical class.
It isn't a common flower, although possibly many people would miss it as it is so tiny.
Russula emetica

|
|
|
Commonly known as the sickener, emetic russula, or vomiting russula gives you some idea of the effects of eating this fungus. I think the red colour is enough to warn one.
