The Salt Cellar

by sandinista

This fantastic piece of weather sculpted gritstone on Derwent Edge stands proud and quite lonely above Ladybower reservoir and gets its name from its visual similarity with a salt cellar.

Lovingly composed. Way things are going I'd guess you'd have a great time in Monument Valley and Bryce Canyon, if I win the lottery I'll send you over on commission

Looks very American to me, great shot.

How big is it, and how large would a figure be compared to it?

Great perspective!

Now you've done it Jim.

Tim Pile is always scouting new rugged locations. He's asking about size so he'll know which model to bring along.

Road trip!!!.

Many thanks everyone. I would say this gritstone outcrop is about 30-40 feet in height
