Photos for Pam - 100 + photos, mainly of Cornwall, because as Pam herself once told me; "That is where my heart is!"

Godrevy lighthouse and Island from Godrevy Point

Towanroath pumping engine house is seen on the cliff top. Its crucial function was to pump the mine shafts clear of water, night and day. And the Wheal Coates tin mine shafts extended far out below the sea!

Late May, to mid June and the mountains are carpeted with it. The aroma is pleasant but not as strongly scented as a field of the cultivated varieties.

Shetland ponies on Treaga Hill, Ralph's Cupboard, Portreath. There has been debate here and on Pano as to whether these are actually Shetland ponies with many members saying they are far too big. But all the literature, online info, signposts and notice boards say that they are and for want of any better evidence, that is what I will continue to call them. Maybe the rich Cornish grassland has fattened them up a treat!

Between Logan Rock and Penberth Cove, some excellent granite cliff scenery is to be had! Faintly on the horizon can be seen the western coastline of The Lizard Peninsula from Praa Sands on the left, past Mullion Cove in the centre to Kynance Cove on the right. I haven't visited these places since I had a camera and had hoped to do so this summer. Alas, it will have to wait another year!

The Promontory is commonly known as Logan Rock but it must have a proper name as Logan Rock only refers to a once rocking stone on the top. The area around the isthmus and a bit landward is the site of a defended ancient settlement called Trereen Dinas (South). 'South' to distinguish it from a similarly named ancient settlement site on Gurnard's Head on the north coast. But I just can't find out the name for the promontory as a whole!. Can you spot the two yachts?

Very clear Cornish waters allow for some interesting seaweed and other shoreline life to be photographed, on a clear and calm day (obv.)

On the South West Peninsula Coast Path as it passes Trereen Dinas (South) with the Logan Rock promontory near Porthcurno. Project 21 August 2021. First posted 2018. H. A. N. W: E:everyone!

The clear water in these rock pools makes taking photos of them a delight!

I've posted shots from here before but at low tide I think. And I used one as an HFF, so this one is just for Pam! The back of the 'Steep Cliff Path' sign can be seen. Here is the front; www.ipernity.com/doc/2247598/47251980 Can you spot it?

The convent from above. There are a number of steep ascents to the high point of the ridge from here. I normally ascend by another route and sometimes descend here. I have ascended here twice only and it is pergatory if you are not reasonably fit! Situated at the foot of the steep ridge of the Sierra de La Cabrera.

St Agnes Beacon and the north Cornish coast at Porthtowan can be seen from here.

The wall encloses (to my mind) a most incongruous golf course! In answer to a question to an earlier Cape Cornwall upload, that´s not a lighthouse but the chimney from a disused engine pumping house for a tin mine.

H. A. N. W. E. Everyone!!! I may have posted this before, but not as a HANWE shot nor dedicated to Pam's continuing progress!

Samphire and Asparagus Islands at high tide, from Carvannel Downs and the South West Peninsula Coast Path. Godrevy Island and lighthouse is just visible between the two islands.

South West Peninsula Coast Path in the St Agnes area. Man and His Man seen offshore and gorse and heather of course in the foreground. A wetter year in 2011 than 2018 (though not by much) and a better floral show.

The fierce and long early summer heatwave led to a waning of the floral display earlier than normal. But it could still produce a pleasing, if muted, show in places!

I couldn't resist one more of the General! The last one I think!
