For 2014 I set myself a project to take and publish a photograph every day. Hopefully. Here are the results.
Shackle and Chain. Saw this in Newlyn harbour last week. Not sure what it does but as there is a shackle, some chain and a bloomin’ great lump of concrete I suspect that it has at some date had something moored to it. 10 November 2014
Chimney Pots, Bath. I cannot help noticing the many and wonderful chimney pots that adorn the rooftops of the Beautiful City of Bath. 9 November 2014
Cornish Steps. As I’ve been traveling all day I’ve not had any photo opportunities so here’s one I prepared earlier. Around the area of West Penwith where we were in Cornwall there are lots of old dry stone walls which tend to be very thick and overgrown. Where necessary they have these steps up them…
Chain – again. Because of a lack of WiFi during the week I have been preparing my blogs as drafts and uploading them as and when I could. Now I’m home I have uploaded everything but, somehow, Day 310 completely disappeared. I know that it was this picture which I had taken in a Newlyn…
Cape Cornwall. Our last day of holiday in Cornwall and the weather forecast was awful so imagine our surprise and delight when the sun shone. We have decided that Cape Cornwall is quite our favourite spot, so that’s where we headed. From the car park we crossed the field and climbed up to the day…
Longships Rocks and Lighthouse. Off the southwest tip of England are three famous lighthouses that warn mariners of dangerous rocks: Longships, Wolf Rock and Bishop Rock. This picture shows the Longships Rocks and Lighthouse and was taken from Sennen Cove. The other two lights are too far out to sea to see. 5 November 2014
St Helen’s Oratory, Cape Cornwall Many people believe that Land’s End is the most westerly point in England, this is incorrect as the most westerly point is actually Cape Cornwall which is just up the coast a bit. This is all immaterial anyway as Land’s End is where everyone goes and is therefore a tourist…
Towednack Church, Cornwall. We have become used to finding churches locked up in this country. It was with great pleasure therefore to find one that wasn’t. We were driving up to Zennor on Cornwall’s north coast when we spotted a tiny church just off the road. There was a track leading up to it so…
Rescue Cooperation. The cottage we are staying in at Newlyn overlooks the harbour and just down the hill from us the Penlee Lifeboat is stationed. Some of you will remember that some years ago a previous Penlee Lifeboat was tragically lost with all hands during a terrible storm while trying to rescue others. If you’re…
Halloween! Today is Halloween which was originally a British thing which lost popularity but is now back with a vengeance as an American import. The reason for Halloween’s decline is that we started celebrating Guy Fawkes Night (aka Bonfire Night) on November 5th, of which more next week. Last year I bought the most awful…
