This is a really dramatic photo, Adrian. I love how the tin mine buildings really stand out clearly, even though they’re so small. :)

That looks an awful lot like some of the shots I took up in Maine along the Atlantic Ocean. I haven’t posted those particular ones yet, but they’re going to look really familiar to you!
Nice shot – you did a good job with it.

Thank you Nancy. I had heard that the north eastern US coastline shares a lot of the same characteristics as the Cornish coast before. I will very much look forward to seeing your pictures. :-)

I can feel the sea breeze… makes me want to be there so much! :)

This beach is one of my favourite places. I hope you can visit soon Tracey. :-)

Hoping to get to Cornwall sometime during the summer… can’t wait! In the meantime I’m loving being transported there with your photographs :)

That’s great! I hope the weather behaves for your trip. :-)

What a beautiful blog you have. Such amazing photos. Love the layout and the text. Takes me back to my childhood.

Thank you very much! Really appreciate your comment.

Serene composition, even with those threatening skies. It still amazes me that those buildings don’t just slide on down that slope.
June 20, 2013 at 10:59 pm
Thank you Gunta. The rain wasn’t far away. Sadly I guess those building will just slide down the cliff one day but the Victorians clearly knew a thing or two about building. :-)
June 21, 2013 at 7:12 am
I’d love to see it in natural colors :-)

Stunning image.
You have a real talent at taking these beautiful beach and coastal photos. I’ve kept one of my favourites in my email inbox so I can review it from time to time.

Thank you Vicki. I really appreciate that.
June 21, 2013 at 7:14 am
So very majestic! Gets me to think of how powerful nature can be!
June 21, 2013 at 1:56 am
Thank you. It can get pretty wild down there when there’s an Atlantic storm raging.
June 21, 2013 at 7:15 am
Oh, that’s just gorgeous. I love the subtle colors.
June 21, 2013 at 3:49 am

Beautiful image Adrian, great composition, dramatic sky, moody tones, subtle lead-in lines…..and very sharp.

Thanks David. Much appreciated.

What a beauty, Adrian! I always photograph Wheal Coates from the cliff. I’ll have to go and check out this beach!
June 21, 2013 at 9:27 am
Thank you Malcolm. There’s a little National Trust car park at Chapel Porth and you can access the beach from there. You really need to aim for low tide as there isn’t a beach at all at high tide.
June 21, 2013 at 12:07 pm
Thanks for the info. I’ll check it out..

June 21, 2013 at 7:06 pm
I like the drama in the sky and the tranquility of the beach. That is such an effective contrast.
June 21, 2013 at 8:26 pm
Thank you Andy!
June 22, 2013 at 7:37 am
Exquisite grays!

You make a palette of grey shades in your image so appealing and restful ChillB .
Very lovely. My eyes just follow around the coastline to the mist and rocks in the distance… with a sense of somehow perfectly balanced opposites .. craggy rocks enveloped in softness .
June 22, 2013 at 8:43 pm
Thank you so much Poppy.
June 23, 2013 at 7:01 am
Your pictures always look so good partly because of the way you frame them, It makes them POP. I wish that I could do that.
June 23, 2013 at 1:48 pm
Thank you James. If you have Photoshop it’s quite easy to do and you can now download Photoshop CS2 for free. http://www.techspot.com/downloads/3689-adobe-photoshop-cs2.html :-)

July 8, 2013 at 5:26 pm
There is almost a Winter feel to it, Adrian…all of that near-pristine white. So very nice….
July 10, 2013 at 1:10 am
Very perceptive Scott. This picture was actually taken on the 15th December last year. :-)
