View of the Lower Lias rock strata at Hock Cliff
River cliff. View of the Lower Lias rock strata in a river bank cliff. The cliff has been eroded by the action of water and rocks from it are lying on the river bed. These beds of hard limestone rocks were laid down in the early part of the Jurassic period (195-136 million years ago). Photographed at Hock Cliff on the River Severn, England

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing view of the Lower Lias rock strata at Hock Cliff, situated along the majestic River Severn in England. The relentless force of water has eroded this river cliff over millions of years, leaving behind a stunning display of geological wonders. As you gaze upon this image, your eyes are drawn to the layers upon layers of sedimentary rocks scattered across the river bed. These particular beds consist of hard limestone rocks that were formed during the early Jurassic period, approximately 195-136 million years ago. Each distinct layer tells a story about Earth's ancient history and provides valuable insights into our planet's evolution. This photograph serves as a reminder that beneath our feet lies an intricate tapestry woven by time itself. The beauty and complexity found within these rock strata showcase nature's remarkable ability to shape and mold its surroundings. It is through processes like erosion that we witness firsthand how landscapes transform over vast periods. This snapshot not only celebrates the fascinating world of geology but also highlights the delicate balance between land and water. Taken at Hock Cliff on the River Severn, this image invites us to appreciate both its scientific significance and aesthetic appeal. Let it transport you back in time as you marvel at these ancient formations while contemplating Earth's ever-changing face.
