Did you take the photos of the flowers Rachel because they are really good. It also looks a stunning location, wish I was there!

Oh thank you John Very Happy

, I did yes- all my own work.
The first picture is on the Coastal Path looking from Rinsey ( West Cornwall) over Praa Sands towards Cudden Point. We stayed in a hotel about 7 miles west of where I took that picture. ( We walked about 18 miles that day )
The second picture is from the balcony at the hotel. I delibrately focused on the flowers to emphasise their beauty against the stunning background-of St Michael's Mount, which is what most people go there for.

The others are flowers in the hotel gardens.

This one my Hubby took.... taking a breather in an Old Mine Building

<snip> too late Smile

Yes that 2nd picture is really good, just enticing you to look at the view in the background.

It's either brilliant talent or a brilliant camera Laughing

It's talent!

Cornwall - finest county in Britain (regardless of what others tell you!). But I would say that 'cos I'm a bit biased.

Moi luvvers.

Just for you John - the Background in focus.....not such a good picture

Cornwall is fab - we go there a lot - when the sun shines- there's no better place.

I thought that looked like Praa Sands, Rachel - takes me back to my childhood (the eastern end was always the spot we ended up at, far easier to get parked there than Praa Sands itself).

The hotel is in or beside Marazion, then?

Great photos Rachel. I like the one, especially, that your husband took Wink

" The one my hubby took" Smile

I was going for the "resting Lara Croft look"- but without the hooters and shooters...
