Columnar basalt
Vikingbugt Inlet in Scoresby Sund, East Greenland has a great display of columnar basalt, formed when lava flows cool slowly and shrinks forming hexagonal cracks that can be dozens of feet long. There were some beautiful sweeping curves in this geological formation with the reddish colour of the rocks coming from iron.

on February 12, 2020I glanced at this one during my break at work today but didn't have time to comment. The juxtaposition of those hexagonal columns and columnar basalt is amazingly visually interesting and a gorgeous sight to behold!
