OLDEN DAYS

If I could choose a fantasy superpower it would be 'time-travel' so I could go back in time and hang out at the same beaches where I hang out now, but before the crowds...

Anyone recognise this place?


1890. Fishing boats pulled up on the sand & shorefront gardens.



1893. Distinctive cliff-line hasn't changed (but skyline has).



1935. This'll give it away...



1960. Daytrips to the seaside.

FALLING LEAVES



Millais - Autumn Leaves.

As Autumn leaves settle once more, I'm sorry to see Summer fade away, always too short. Seasons change, hold tight to the light for a few more weeks. By then I'll be ready.

¡HOLA


Someone in Chile.

Looks like somebody from San Miguel, Chile visited kernowkalling. Well I hope they enjoyed it, maybe it was by accident, possibly a digital ghost from the ether, or perhaps a new friend from the blogosphere...

FADED GLOVE


faded
Metaphorical.

Foxgloves have always been a favourite of mine - their appearance in early June a sure sign that summer is on its way.

I came across this one, faded but not jaded by the passage of time...

SUNBURST


sunset
Last drop of sun.

Went to the beach last night while the rest of the universe watched the footy. Tiny little waves - hardly worth going in, but then Jenny turned up and the wind dropped to nothing, so we went for a splash. The sun finally burst through the clouds just after I got out of the water.

RUB DOWN

I used to use Letraset a lot.

Custom fin graphics anyone? Something along these lines would suit me...
