Title: Holiday images
Post by: Dirkdigger on June 30, 2006, 22:46:38
Hi to all, haven't been around for a while due to health problems. Fingers crossed all OK now hope to participate a little more in future.
As the title says more boring holiday images from Cornwall. I will try and limit sizes for anyone only on dial up and not post too many.
For anyone who hasn't been to this part of Cornwall hope some of my photos will tempt you to go, scenery is all around you.
First image is of the Minack theatre taken from Logans rock, shows you the dissent to reach the bottom.
Bye for now.

Some back lit foxgloves, taken on a walk from Porthgawwra (?) to Porthcurno our base. It was quite late in the evening.

Had a problem with the muscles in my eyes, seems to be OK at the moment. Hence why not many photographs or incursions into A4A.
Thanks for the comment about the foxgloves mothy, thought I would post a few more for you all. The allotment photo was a site overlooking Mount bay on the road from Newlyn to Mousehole. Very decorative.

Dirkdigger, good to see you back with your wonderful photos.  I love the allotment one, what a superb place for a lottie, although I expect it can get a lot of wind and rain too.

We are off to Cornwall in a few weeks so it is interesting to see your photos.

Thanks. T

I'm sorry, I missed them too! - don't know why :o They're all spectacular and give a real flavour of a county I don't know. A trip to the Eden Project, a childhood hol in Looe and that's my lot.

Do hope that your eyes continue to improve & that you're back on top form really soon. And again, sorry I missed the pics first time round. :-[
