Seven Sisters by quietpurplehaze

Seven Sisters

I took this photo standing in Birling Gap, which is literally a gap in the cliffs between Beachy Head, the highest cliff on the south coast, and this sweep of cliffs called Seven Sisters.

Ray tells me that Seven Sisters is now called Eight sisters because erosion has now made 8 peaks in the sweep of cliff instead of 7.

I had trouble counting either!

Many thanks for sweeping both yesterday's photos to PP on Valentine's Day - one mine, the other Ray's!
Great capture with the dramatic sky and white cliffs

I could not do it - Ray tells me that the reason lots of folk choose Beachy Head, just up the road, to jump, is that it's the highest cliff.
