A greenhouse full of goodies at early autumn's harvest time at Buckland Abbey. The harvest moon would rise in the sky a few hours after this was taken. #Harvest #BucklandAbbey #Autumn #PaulMichaelPhotos

A few sequences showing my walk into the quaint village of Polruan in Cornwall. I love this place. Fowey is across the river. youtu.be/Pmc5KtTDMcE?...

Newquay's Towan Beach has a private high island just off the mainland cliffs, connected by a footbridge. There's a bungalow nestled at the top. #Newquay #TowanBeach #TowanBeachIsland #Cornwall #Coast #CoastalVibes #SeaBreeze #SaltAir #PaulMichaelPhotos

This was the first time I've been able to snap a Chough when I've been out walking. They have a distinctive burnt orange beak and feet. Cornwall has the Chough on its coat of arms #Chough #Cornwall #Coast #CoastalVibes #SeaBreeze #SaltAir #PaulMichaelPhotos

If you are out and about, you may have noticed that a great deal of hay has already been baled. It's about a month or more early due to the very dry weather. Sadly, there's quite a bit less than usual. #PaulMichaelPhotos

A seat on the SW Coast Path. Placed there in memory of a loved one and a recent delivery of flowers. I love to read the plaques on these benches. #Bedruthan #MemorialBenches #Cornwall #Coast #CoastalVibes #SeaBreeze #SaltAir #PaulMichaelPhotos

Peeping through the curtains to take a snap of sunrise over Falmouth this morning from my holiday cruise ship. And my reflection. OK, Falmouth is a bit of a bus man's location for me, so I'm going to lap up the goodies on the ship 😁🛳️😁

Goofed with the tides again. Not quite low enough to get to that rock jutting up in the distance. I sat it out over a spot of lunch #DownderryBeach #ShagRockBeach #Cornwall #Coast #CoastalVibes #SeaBreeze #SaltAir #PaulMichaelPhotos

A throwback to springtime at Porthleven in Cornwall. The waters can rage in this neck of the woods, but I managed to stay dry on this occasion. #Porthleven #Cornwall

Sometimes, the waters around Cornwall look, well, tropical. It's only when you dip your toe in the water and watch it turn an even deeper blue that you realise where you are. This is the view coming into Crantock on the SW Coast Path. #Crantock #Cornwall #SWCoastPath

Mevagissey harbour on the south Cornish coast is one of my favourite harbour towns. It's mostly unspoilt, which makes it such a pull for visitors who appreciate Cornwall at its best. #Mevagissey #Harbour #Cornwall

The River Dart on a much cooler February day. Fast-flowing from days of heavy rain. I imagine things are a lot calmer in the current climate. #RiverDart #Dartmoor #Devon

Golitha Falls is a beautiful spot to visit, especially when the weather is warm. The fast-flowing upper reaches of the River Fowey cool the air through this wooded valley. #GolithaFalls #Cornwall

When it's hot on the moor, cows assemble under one of the very few trees. I'm thinking it must be hotter in there than to be alone and exposed. #BodminMoor #Cornwall

There are plenty of beaches along the Cornish coast that remain little-known. You have to get out there and find them. #GoranHaven #Portholland #Cornwall #Coast #CoastalVibes #SeaBreeze #SaltAir

Late spring flowers on the cliffs around Trevose Head in Cornwall. The beaches are absolutely crammed this weekend due to a well-timed heatwave for the school holidays. So, it's good to wander off on quieter, scenic paths #T|revoseHead #Cornwall #CoastalFlowers #Coast #CoastalVibes #SeaBreeze

I love this time of the year when the summer flowers start to bloom. There is a gradual shift from the blues to the pinks on the south Cornish coast paths #Lansallos #Cornwall #Coast #CoastalVibes #SeaBreeze #SaltAir

Down on the beach. I love the colours of oh-so-British beach huts found at many beach locations around the UK. These are located at Crooklets Beach, near Bude in Cornwall #CrookletsBeach #Bude #BeachHuts #Cornwall #Coast #CoastalVibes #SeaBreeze #SaltAir

Bude Sea Pool's maintenance works. I happened to be there on the day the pool was being drained for maintenance work. The program involves clearing debris and cleaning, along with checking for and repairing any cracks. #Bude #BudeSeaPool #Cornwall #Coast #CoastalVibes #SeaBreeze #SaltAir

A visit to Cotehele in SE Cornwall on Sunday didn't disappoint. Everything is coming into bloom, but bluebells get my full attention this time of year. This is a dreamy bluebell scene - as though you are lying amongst them. #Bluebells #Springtime #Flowers #Blooms #Cotehele #Cornwall
