St Agnes, North Cliffs and Godrevy coasts

The salty air obviously doesn't bother them at all. Indeed they thrive in Cornwall, I have picked them the size of dinner plates.

The Godrevy Coast, Reskajeage, Cornwall. An incredibly bright day. The sky was white but the sea ... ... ! For Pam, of course!

I know I've posted this before but not for a couple of years at least. Clear waters with just the hint of breeze-carressed ripples. Asparagus and Samphire Islands seen here. The 'eye' is the remains of an exploratory mine shaft. I'm pleased they didn't find what they were looking for!

For Pam. The beach at Portreath at low tide viewed from Treaga Hill. I think I may have posted this before, and fairly recently at that! Apologies if so.

You can't walk between the two at sea level; even at low tide. You have to ascend the cliff, move along the coast path and descend by a steep scramble to the end of St Agnes Head. The whole thing takes over 30 minutes and yet it is within spitting distance. Perhaps best to swim!

Porthcadjack, Cornwall. Sight and Sound. A Paul Tortellier masterclass in the original French. Paul Tortellier: A musical genius no doubt but also the best proselytiser of classical musical I have ever heard. Sheer passion, allied to musicological insight, sound didactic methodology, rationality, humanity and humour. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTPls_aozMw

Crane Islands seen from Greenbank Cove, Cornwall

Since Fishing Cove became an 'official' nudist beach (I think in the '90s), not one nudist has been spotted here (at least not by me!!). The safe but spectacular path down was thought to act as a deterrent to voyeurs, as it looks far more difficult than it really is. It didn't matter, the nudists stayed away anyway! Hell's Mouth is round the corner. For Pam.

North Cornish Coast. The waves weren't particularly high but a stiff wind made for some nice effects!

Bright light that day. Frustratingly my old Motorolo E digital didn't have geo-positioning so I can`t do as requested. I fear this will apply to at least half my uploads.

I could watch the waves here for hours, especially when the blowholes are operating (not on this day sadly") Please view on large.

I'm pleased I hadn't yet deleted these 2018 Cornwall pics from my phone. I was on the verge of doing so! Unedited for the reasons mentioned before.

Porthcadjack. Samphire and Asparagus Islands prominent. Cornwall coast, about halfway between Portreath and Basset Cove, for those of you who miss geo tagging! For Pam. Unedited. I have lost the hard drive of my old computer and although the external hard drive seems to be OK and it is where my photos are, I can't associate it with my new laptop. Google has dumped Picasa, so my editing tool has gone. I had it on my old computer but that is history. How does Picmonkey work? Until I am able to associate my external hard drive with my new laptop, I will have a limited supply of uploads, and no new photos for a while.

Tubby's Head, St Agnes Heritage Coast, Cornwall, England, The United Kingdom, Europe, The Planet Earth, The Galaxy, The Universe, and whatever comes after that and it has nothing whatsoever to do with the complete and utter arses at Google.

Heather and gorse. For Pam. The 'eye' seen in Asparagus Island is the result of an exploratory late 18th century tin mine.

I like the effect of the 'sunbeam', unintended as it was! The result of taking the shot into the sun. View from above Basset Cove, past Crane Islands and on to The Knavocks, Navrax Head and Godrevy Island.

Another from this section of coast on this day when the light and the sky were dramatic. For Pam.
