Asparagus and Samphire Islands at low tide. Porthcadjack, Cornwall. PLEASE STAY, DON'T RUN AWAY!!!

Asparagus and Samphire Islands at low tide. Porthcadjack, Cornwall.  PLEASE STAY, DON'T RUN AWAY!!!
Not advisable to dawdle too close to the crumbly edge here! I walk by here about once every two years (at one time 3-4 times a week when I lived here!), and am constantly surprised by how much land has disappeared each time! Not too long ago, I could have walked across to the promontory from here in a straight line!).
There is an old tin mine entrance on the far island (storm erosion has washed away what would have been an obvious approach to the entrance, I suspect).

Nice shot Andy, very nice warmth to the tone of the scene. I looks like it might be very old mine, would it have go below the water level?
Best wishes, Doug

Thank you, Doug.
I don't know and I'm not even sure if anyone does know just how far this went, how old it is, whether it was exploratory and abandoned, or just too difficult to operate (which I suspect!).
Merry Christmas!

Indeed we are, Nick! Not so slowly in some cases, sadly :o(
Only kidding! at least I can't point the finger at 'death by mince pie', such delights are unbeknownst to the Spanish! :o)
I presume the port has now been safely stowed away until next Christmas and the prezzies are being sorted out for a trip to the M+S 'no questions asked' returns department with its mile long queue!!
Sweet dreams!
Andy.

Of course I do not go, look and listen to everything you tell us is something very sad as every day we lose one more piece of planet earth, ocude in each place, and we can not do anything to stop the erosion of nature, Nice composition, I really like the place Greetings, Merry Christmas 2016,Rebeca

Thank you Gudrun.
It depends on the geology. Some rocks are less erosion resistant than others! Much of Cornwall is granite but these rocks are not as tough.
