A splah of colour.

With the wet, misty dull days that we`ve had for the last few days I`ve been struggling to find something to add to my blog. Dale was keen for me to try playing with some of my older images & as I enjoy mono photography & my plan for this month being  only to shoot in black & white just using a 50mm lense I decided to play with a couple of colour images, converting them to mono but with a slpash of colour. these few images are that result.

A day in St Ives.

Spent the day in St Ives with Debs enjoying some sunshine & the usual window shopping so heres a few images of a lovely day out. 

Colours.

Colours on a wet & windy weekend.

The joy of the outdoors

What one has to do to get a TV reception in Cornwall on a day out.

What no sun?

Who say`s you have to have sunshine to enjoy the beach?

Something old.

I just love finding old things to photograph especially when it`s an old bicycle, this one I found on an empty property near Delabole. I often wonder what history these old things have had & as it`s not there anymore one wonders what now?

Sun downers.

On a perfect evening at Trebarwith strand,  there`s nothing better than a cold beer or glass of wine to watch the sun going over the horizon, the end to a perfect day.

                                                                  

Dew drops.

It`s always great to get out with my camera after a good rainfall or as here in north Cornwall heavy mist & get some images of the dew drops. These were taken  while on a morning walk to the local shop.

Mono images.

Just a couple of mono images which were shot in colour using RAW then converted to black & white.

Travelling on sunny days

You won`t get anywhere if you only travel on sunny days but it does help when it is sunny!

Just a few seagull images.

You can`t get away from these guys here in Cornwall epcially when food is near.

                                                                              

Delabole walkabouts.

Just a couple of images of some walks around the quarry & Delabole.

Hartland Abbey gardens

I've been very lazy as it's been a couple of months since I last even looked at my blogger page, in fact I'd even forgotten my password, so how bad is that? Well I'm back onto my blogger again with some photo's that were taken today. We spent the day with friends Charles & Phyllis, who we met a couple of months ago, South Africans who've been here about 8 years but only moved to Cornwall this year. We went to Hartland Abbey in north Devon to walk around the gardens & do a bit of coast walking. The garden was a walled garden & what a beautiful garden it was, I took over 50 images but the ones below are just a few of my better ones.
