First apologies for yet another shot of Trebarwith, however the fact it is not a million miles from home plus I think it offers up quite a few different compositions does lure me back on a regular basis.

Funny enough it is not only me who likes this location, when I recently walked towards the beach (for those of you that know it) I counted 15 photographers all jostling for position at the end of the rock on the left hand side.

Boy did they look fierce, both men and ladies nudging, pushing, baring their teeth at each other, at one point I thought there were going to be backpacks and tripods at close quarters. What is the world coming to.

Not wanting to be part of all this commotion I quietly sauntered off on plan B and scrambled up onto these rocks across the gully opposite the baying pack where I had the place to myself.
It did quite tickle me that when observing the heated group of photographers discreetly through my peripheral vision, the jostling had stopped and fingers were being pointed in my direction, much to say, why did we not think of that!

Then you could see the steam coming out of the ears amongst said group, did they stay where they were, lose face and give up pole position (in their minds) and come over to where I was, or did pride and vanity get the better of them, fortunately for me they stayed put and the pushing and shoving continued, whether they got any photos is anyones guess.

Nowt as strange as folk, I certainly enjoyed a quiet evening on my own.

The comments and banter are much appreciated, hope you have a lovely weekend out there in Flickerland ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿท๐Ÿท๐Ÿท๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜‚

Though I have photographed a few bluebells etc this was my first coastal adventure with the camera since my prolonged pit stop and I so enjoyed it as the sea is where my heart is.

I spotted this location a couple of years back just as the coastal thrift had died off and have always wanted to return as these rock formations are a bit different.
I was most grateful to Mrs P who acted as my Sherpa, she carried the necessary equipment and generally looked after me e.g. made sure I did not fall off the cliff edge ๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚.

I will leave you to ponder over part of a conversation I overheard between a couple of characters recently, โ€œAs you get older, three things happen, first your memory goes and I canโ€™t remember the other twoโ€ ๐Ÿ˜œ.

Thank you for viewing my photos, hope you get as much enjoyment from them as I do photographing these locations.

The comments and banter are much appreciated, hope you have a lovely weekend out there in Flickerland ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿท๐Ÿท๐Ÿท๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚.

Following a bit of rummaging around of some old images, I found this chap lurking in the back of the computer which I felt needed a bit of TLC.

Lurking, I really like this word in relation to files we find in our storage media, do you have a word you like and in your opinion, should your word be given more coverage.

So I gave this shot of Porth Nanven a drink as you do, plus a healthy meal and it has perked up considerably and feels very much at home in itโ€™s new accommodation.

Have a lovely weekend out there in Flickrland.

I recently noticed an exchange of pleasantries between a couple of Flickerites regarding a shot of Holywell Bay that Steve Pellatt had uploaded, which the Queen of Steetley Pier AKA Lynne Berry, mentioned to Steve, โ€œBrings back memories with Mr Pโ€.

Poor Lynne has never quite recovered from meeting Horace and I that evening.
So following a rummage around on our gravel drive or whatever it is called I found this shot hiding away that I thought might be of interest from our meet up.

Seriously Lynne, what a lovely evening that was, where have those 3 years gone.

I only have to mention the word โ€˜Trebarwithโ€™ and Horace is in the car faster than you can say โ€œFamous Grouseโ€.

Horace is ever hopeful that he will once again bump into Pink Welly man who lives at said location, not only has the aforementioned gentleman have identical footwear to Horace, but being the petrol head that Horace is, he would like a chat with PW man regarding the famous pink car often seen here in its own designated parking bay.

Horace is looking forward to the day he can have a full debrief with said gentleman, Horace has even written to โ€˜Long Lost Familyโ€™ wondering if there is a connection.

Canโ€™t help it but I get drawn back to this location on a fairly regular basis, however I do try and mix up the compositions so it does not get samey for you.

It was nice to get some shots from the beach, as recently the high low tides have prevented this.

Hope you are all having a good weekend out there in Flickrland.
