This was taken at Hunstanton Nr Norfolk England UK a dead calm before a storm…...... There are two sides to Hunstanton, There is the elegant old Victorian town with its Esplanade Gardens and rather sedate air of days-gone-by, when people flocked to take the water ‘for medicinal purposes’. Then there is the lively, buzzing family resort, with donuts and candy floss, ice cream and donkey rides and a whole funfair of amusements to keep you entertained! Hunstanton boasts famous stripy cliffs and a fabulous beach, which has a Good Beach Award for safety and cleanliness. You can walk from one resort to the other, so you can enjoy a morning of fun and activity at the crazy golf or Sea Life Sanctuary and then spend a lazy afternoon lying on the beach beneath the rambling sand dunes. If exhilarating outdoor sports are more your kind of thing, the sea provides a vast playground for sailing, jet skiing and windsurfing, with Hunstanton offering excellent wind conditions for this popular sport.

They originate from the Cretaceous period. This makes them 100 million years old and some of the oldest rocks visible in East Anglia. The 3 layers visible are brown carstone at the bottom. This is used as a building material locally. The white and red rock above is chalk which originates from the sea bottom and is formed from plant and animal remains which sink. The red colour of the middle layer is due to the presence of iron oxides. Camera – Canon Powershot A570 IS Edited in Picasa 3
