Westcountry photographs

No webpage about the westcountry would be complete without some pictures of Carnival.

If you don't know much about it, or are thinking, 'What's all this, then?' Here's some more information.

Despite having lived in Wiltshire all my life, I realise I haven't really spent much time really looking.... so I went on a wander to Coate Water and took a couple of pictures. It's quite pretty there, really - especially first thing in the morning.

I visited Dorset for the first time this weekend and was amazed how beautiful it was!

Full set here.

I haven't posted here before but thought would share my photos.
Just a warning there is 48 pictures under the cut so not dial up friendly.

A few weeks ago I did an early morning dash to Brixham.

I'm really proud of these photos and wanted to share them here. They were all taken last Saturday morning (5 July) between about eight o'clock and nine o'clock. This illustrates how quickly and dramatically the weather and sea conditions can change here in the south-west of England.

This is the River Lyn at Watersmeet near Lynton.

   

Bit too quiet here innit? :D
