Sadly there is a darker side to Beachy Head. On average one person ends their life there every two weeks. Many more are persuaded not to by the ever-present chaplains who patrol the clifftop 24/7.

Great photos. Makes me want to get out and start exploring.
ReplyDeleteIt's been too long since I've been to the beach but I almost feel like I'm there looking at these.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful pictures, I love the lighthouse!!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking, "How beautiful" until I got to the end and read about the suicide.
ReplyDeletebeautiful pictures (but sad about the suicides)
ReplyDeleteWow thats a lot of deaths! Reminds me of when we went to Clifton Bridge and there are signs of Good Samaritan as there are also lots of jumpers there.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos - I want to be at the beach!
ReplyDeleteStunning photos! That's so sad about the suicide.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful photos. I love how you captured the heart of the beach.
ReplyDeleteSuper shots of the green lands and the beach waaaaayyy below you. I esp. like the photo of the pier with the aging posts covered in algae.
ReplyDeleteStunning pictures Keith, I would love to visit here!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so envious. I live in Nebraska. We only have rivers. That light house is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a beautiful place. I can't understand why someone living among that much beauty would choose to jump off the cliffs.

It's probably because it is such a beautiful place to end it all Joyce. And they come not just from the UK, but across Northern Europe too. So sad.
DeleteYou took some fantastic shots Keith! Wow, it that a beautiful place. Thankful there are chaplains there to help stop some of the people who want to end their lives.
ReplyDeleteI want to visit the UK so badly.....one day. ;)
Such beautiful and serene scenery, despite the sad statistics.
ReplyDeleteNature can be so impressive!

ReplyDeleteLove the flowers and rocks. Unfortunate about the people who end their lives. That's a huge number of people!
ReplyDeleteOh, what a gorgeous place to photograph! I love lighthouses! Plus, there is a whole of beautiful landscape nearby. Just perfect!

Lovely pictures and looks challenging to the ankles and knees. That's horrifying about the need for chaplains.

Love these views of the beach, the pier and ocean. Great to see the white and pink iceplant (a colloquial name)
ReplyDeletewhat gorgeous scenery. I literally breathed a deep sigh and swear I could smell the air. would be a beautiful walk. such tragedy that there are those who choose to make it their last -- but what a wonderful service those Chaplains are providing to those who need them.
ReplyDeletegreat pictures - I love the lighthouse and all the pretty flowers.
