A very beautiful image of Mousehole Alan.
The marina looks a bit dry. :) The British Isles are still on my "to-do" list and so I am enjoying your images of the area. You make a wonderful tour guide, Alan.
Beautiful shot.
Excellent to see a wideangle view of this icon!
This is fab. I am amazed by the tidal range there.
That is one low tide my friend you wouldn't want to be late.
Lovely I guess being scolded by that particular fishwife would not be so bad for some as they would not understand a word she said.. Always a pleasure to view my homeland!
Hope you used your macro to show a nice abstraction of that interesting hull!
bonne photo!!
wonderful views and beautiful and pleasant image!
Looks lovely to me too Alan...never knew that Cornish was a spoken language at one time. I learn something new everyday on RR:)
I really like the way you shot the harbor across that boat. Makes for a fabulous photograph! SO interesting.
Fantastic image. I like very much the colors
Great work! Everything is right here: The lights, colors, the foreground, background...everything. Could be seen in a calendar. It creates fine memories from my holidays in 2009 and 2010 in your country. 5+++++ !

SPLENDID COMPOSITION
Stunning capture my friend.
Fantastic wide angle shot. Looks superb!
Lovely image with wonderful POV, depth, color, and light! I love the boat in the foreground, and the curve of the walls and shore. I like the way the ropes tethering the boats make lines across the ground. Beautiful capture!
wonderful picture!!!!
