Under gray skies, these cliffs: ponderous, massive, implacable.

Cliff height toward the top right of this shot is over 25 meters.

Impressive cliffs! Their leaning tells there was some kind of tectonic loweringunder their edge in a remote past.

L. L. Wall replied to Dimas Sequeira:

Years ago, Andy Rodker schooled me on how my beloved Maine coastline wasn't as American as I thought ---> Continental Drift, in my words ... All geologic structures east of the Norumbega Fault, in New England and into Canada, were left behind eons ago when Pangea ripped apart and Europe "drifted" away. And all are remnants of a primordial continent called Avalonia that was crushed out of existence between Eurasia and North America as Pangea initially formed. Thus, eastern New England and coastal Maine share predominant European geology with Cornwall England, The Ardennes, and also the Atlas Mountains of northwest Africa.
