The Last of Kilve

[Lesley Jones]

I like Somerset. The trip could have been a tad less stressful. I didn't leave until nearly midday from the border with Kent and I arrived just before 5.00 and as it started raining again. I got soaked on and off on the beach until it got dark and by the time I got back to the B&B, everyone else was in bed. Up and out before anyone was awake to spend a couple of hours at Berrow with the old wreck. I got home mid afternoon and had to collect one of our cats from the local vet and rush her all the way to her neurosurgeon in Newmarket - another 200 mile round trip. It was supposed to have been a relaxing break...

Hi Lesley

Two really stunning images. I like them a lot timing perfect. I hope you cat is well.

 

[Pete Askew]

But despite all that you still managed to capture a pair of super images.

Verly nice shots, Lesley. Beautiful.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Love both of them Lesley

The cloud and sunbeams in #1 are wonderful

And the sunburst hotting the bench in #2 is just magic

 

[Brian Moore]

Love the shots, Lesley. Did you post a similar color one a while back?

 

[Lesley Jones]

I have posted another one of the bench in colour Brian. It's a wonderful place, but frustrating because the beach is far too dangerous to explore. In my "pre-visit research" I found at least two photographers who had fallen and broken things. One was a lens and the other a couple of ribs...

 

[Beth Anthony]

love the second photo of the bench. great perspective.

 

[Paul Lange]

Another two wonderful shots Lesley. You know you can always crawl along the beach with your gear in a back pack. Couple of knee pads and some gardening gloves, sorted and very difficult to fall if you're on the ground already. You'll look a wally mind you..................

 

[Lesley Jones]

That's not so far from the truth Paul. I managed to get one of a pool, but because it was over seaweed and slime covered rocks I did actually get out there on all fours using the folded tripod as a kind of walking stick

Hi Lesley,

Somehow I missed these. Beautiful work.
I do enjoy your write ups too.
They have calm and descriptive element in them.
