Good Morning, St Ives

Good Morning, St Ives
More pictures coming your way after a long absence from this photoblog for most of 2014 🙂 I passed through St Ives on my previous trip to Cornwall in 2011 but did not get to visit the beautiful seaside town. On my trip this time round, we stayed over and found a bit of time to explore the narrow alleyways within town itself. There were a lot of one-way lanes which made navigation tricky (there are also vehicular restrictions especially in summer). In the end, we were glad we made the effort to drive in for we were rewarded with a beautiful view of the town in the early morning sunshine.

Storm’s Coming To Lizard Point

Storm's Coming To Lizard Point
Photographers are drawn to Cornwall, UK for its wild coastal landscapes. I visited Lizard Point (the most southerly point on mainland Great Britain) during the summer four years ago but did not manage to get the pictures I was looking for as the weather was too mild! The wilder weather (we had to take refuge in the cafe there to avoid a shower of hailstones) we experienced this time round finally granted me a chance to capture some of the drama the area had to offer.

On A Cold Morning In Charlestown

On A Cold Morning In Charlestown
I am back from a short one week trip to the UK. Making full use of the four days before we were scheduled to attend a work symposium, my brother and I made a photography-intensive journey through scenic Cornwall. The weather in the UK is only starting to warm up as we enter spring. The weather changes provided a dramatic backdrop to our travels as we braved rain, hail and sunshine on our photographic quest. The above picture was taken in Charlestown in Saint Austell Bay just after a shower of hailstones hit us in the early morning.
