From Dorset to Cornwall
12th December 2010

An early start this morning after an early Christmas supper with friends last night. I passed by Wimborne to see the fields covered in a light frost and a slight mist rising from them, so I stopped and took a couple of shots before I set off home.
Sunday was set aside for lunch at 15 in Cornwall, a long standing promise, which was superb by the way.... a lunch of Gurnard accompanied by fennel & alioli, scallops on a skewer of rosemary.
As I was down in Cornwall I went onto Trebarwith Strand, a place I had always wanted to visit. With a sky-full of high level Cirrus clouds it looked like an amazing sunset was on the way, but as we neared the time, the clouds dispersed leaving a much lighter covering, along with a tick bank near the horizon. As a result there was a light covering of colour across the remaining cloud cover.
On the way down to the Strand from the village, we encountered 2 sheep out for an afternoon wander, constantly stopping, turning round to look at over their shoulders, and frowning. I wish I had captured that for the blog!
