This place doesn\'t seem real, but it is.\
\
The cliffs are on the coast of Reykjanestá, aka \"the toe of Reykjanes\", the south-western tip of the Reykjanes Peninsula, near the town of Grindavik, Iceland.\
\
The island in the background is called Eldey Island. It has the sad distinction of being the nesting ground of the last of the Great Auks.\
