No, but I'd go there just to gaze at the northern lights. 'Course, I can do that in my home province ... but Norway would also be nice.

Woah. Those are both incredible, Grav. The first one is haunting.

I came here with a pic, but having seen these last few of Grav's mine doesn't seem so grand now :P

Ah well, I still like it, so here it is. A panoramic shot of the White Cliffs of Dover. As iconic to us as the Statue of Liberty or the Grand Canyon to you. This is the traditional first and last sight of England. First described in print by Julius Caesar, and the greeting point for royal visitors. The natural fortification of Britain.

And to give a sense of scale:

There's a really cool system of tunnels in those cliffs underneath that castle. Much of the British WWII effort was directed from inside those cliffs.

Cool place, those cliffs. Lots of history. One of those smaller towers in the picture of the castle is a Roman light house that's two millenniums old.

Those are grand pics !

Having heard (and sung songs) about the "white cliffs of Dover",
I actually haven't seen pics before that show what they are all about.

Well done !

I've seen them in person, very dramatic. I've seen them on the silver (and television) screen too.

*** SPOILER ALERT ***

The end of Quadrophenia. This clip gives me the heebie jeebies. I watched it again before posting it here and I still find myself inching back in my chair away from the cliff's edge.

Taken from an airplane, being flown by an airplane-flying research dude. Said there was a wolf pack just out of camera frame waiting for the grizz to get done eating.

ETA: I think he said the bison had been killed/gored by another bison.
