Raves & Rants . . from Penzance

So that's it for 2010, here's some wintry Sennen shots from the recent snow.  If you're reading this tomorrow, then Happy New Year. Sennen Cove Sennen beach, with Cape Cornwall in the distance  Sennen hill surfing  Penlee Park  Penzance Promenade Return to Ocean-Image.com

Since it only snows about once every twenty years down here in the far south west of England, you have to get out and about with the camera quickly, as the snow tends to disappear quickly. This day saw me drinking coffee in warm, bright, snow-free sunshine on the south coast, and then sliding all over the road in a blizzard on the north coast about ten minutes later. I carried on to St Ives to get some 'surfers on a snow covered beach' type shots, only to find it also bathed in bright sunshine. Honestly, us Brits would have nothing to talk about if it weren't for the weather. Return to Ocean-Image
