Now follows a series of images i took while i was on my annual family holiday with my in-laws in Bude, Cornwall. The weather was pretty appauling that week and 24/7 with in-laws was enough to send anyone mad, so my camera was all that kept me going. The weather got pretty dramatic while we were there but i still got dragged to the beach everyday anyway. This is how i filled the time.

Hi Rachel, it looks like you managed to get an excellent image, even with the in-laws.
This is my new wallpaper for the day. Thanks for sharing.

Best wide-angle lens? Two steps backward. Look for the 'ah-ha'. Ernest Haas

Got this in the VB. A very well balanced and composed image. Like the depth you have captured and the details right down to the mist. Good work.

Stunning capture, Rachel. This old flatlander really likes a glimpse of sea and sky. Quite a dramatic capture.

I really like this shot! I think it was the right decision to shoot in Black and White. I like the light coming out of the clouds by the building in the top left corner. Very nice work

I went to Bude many years ago Rachel
We had good weather though, it's a very nice, & posh place as I recall so a Bath girl like you should feel comfortable there. :o)

I hate this years holiday season the weathers been b;¬><y awful.
