Coastal erosion. Strata of mudstone exposed and eroded by wave action. At centre is a small sea stack,a pillar that has been eroded until it stands alone,connected only by a narrow neck of rock to the cliffs from which it originated. Mudstone is an argillaceous sedimentary rock that produces a fine sediment on erosion,creating dark muddy beaches. Photographed on the Pacific coast south of Esmeraldas,Ecuador | |
