Flying buttress
A sandstone arch sticks out from a high sandstone conglomerate cliff like a giant flying buttress, designed to support the weight of the cliff (flying buttresses convey to the ground the lateral forces that push a wall outwards). A glaucus gull sits atop the arch and several ice growlers float at its base. Rode O, Rodefjord, Scoresby Sund, East Greenland
