Walk, Fern and Sea

This is the start of our walk uphill to the Great Flat Lode, about 10 mins from home.

The ferns are starting to unfurl, seeming to have little pearls at the end of each frond.

The sea on the horizon was very blue today and the Spring leaves, very green.

Cornish Sunset, Waves on Fire and Cliffside Flowers

1   Yesterday, after I had posted, we went to the North Coast at Chapelporth for a walk as the sun was setting. The colours were wonderful, the setting sun lighting up Wheal Coates with a glorious glow.

2   As the sun was slipping into the sea, the light was catching breaking waves, creating the illusion of the sea being on fire.

3   Walking back from the cliff edges, the purple and pink heathers and the golden gorse were still lit by enough light to show their beautiful colours.
