Thank you Michelle..
I’d just like to say thank you to Michelle from WordPress who contacted me last week to say that I am now, and I’m very proud to say this, a WordPress recommended photography blog. Since receiving this news, I’ve gained a lot of new followers so I’d like to welcome you all to Cornwall Photographic and hope that you enjoy my posts.
These photographs were taken at a smashing little beach called Porthcothnan on the north coast of Cornwall. Up until last winter, just around the cliff on the left, there was a huge rock that had a hole worn through it forming an arch, a bit like the one at Durdle Door in Dorset. One could get to it at low tide only. Sadly, it was smashed to pieces in the severe storms of last winter. Lets hope we don’t have a repeat of all that this winter. This rock arch was one of those features that I kept telling myself, I must check the tides and go down and take some pictures. I missed my chance and it’s now lost forever. Definitely a lesson to be learned in there somewhere. Click on the images for a sharper, clearer view.. :-)

Adrian, you do deserve it, your dedication and determination to become an even better photographer than you are is inspiring. Apart from your aesthetic eye and wonderful feeling for framing and composition, you also are able to tell and teach in a warm, passionate and human style. So, they should make you their ONE photoblog recomamendation :-)

Thank you Marina. I was vaguely aware that WordPress had recommended blogs in different categories but I didn’t think for one moment my blog would ever be on that list. I’m chuffed to bits!:)

This is such an honour, and marvellous news, Adrian. Congratulations to you. Great images of your coastline. :) Sorry you missed your chance with the arch.
October 20, 2014 at 10:07 pm
Thank you so much Sylvia. This really was a big surprise. It is a shame about the arch. The storms of last winter destroyed an awful lot of coastline and quite a few lives of course.
