St Ives Harbour, low tide

I visit St Ives about once every five years - too touristy in August - but it is a delight out of season. Enlarge please!

Also loved it out of season !

First hubby and i considered buying an engine House up on the cliffs not far off... it was just a bit out of our pocket sadly.

Andy Rodker replied to Pam J:

I guess the engine house would have been at Halsetown, a little to the west of St Ives. It's the closest mining area. Just up the road from there at Cripplesease, is a great little pub,'The Engine' named after a nearby engine house.

Such an impressive and delightful image ,Andy!
Boats resting quietly, almost dreaming on their bed of low tide..
Enlarging it I could enjoy a lot of details against the lovely background!
A very attractive invitation to go there, I must say!
All the best!

Andy Rodker replied to Beatrice Degan(MARS):

It is a beautiful place, Bea.
I would like to take photos of the old fishermen's cottages in the labyrinthine back streets(now often art galleries) but in August it's impossible as the streets are thronged with day-trippers and it's shoulder to shoulder stuff. When I used to visit out of season (ie when I lived not far from here), I didn't have a camera!
Silly me!

Had a long weekend there in the 1990's but have not been back since. Really enjoyed it though. It was in September so not so crowded. Lovely shot.
