Cornish Winter.

Post by PeteM »

According to the Met Office, Winter finishes next week. The season when my camera bag traditionally stayed tucked away at home in the warm, this winter it has been out and about and is looking rather muddy at the moment.
The following selection of images were taken at Newquay Airport and on the moors and cliffs around Cornwall during December, January and February.

Yes it does, according to the Met Office but only for their own internal purposes Winter 'Officially' ends on the 21st of March, there are still several weeks left yet :wall:

Our seasons (and the rest of the NORTHREN HEMISPHERE's) are set by the Solstices not the Met Office...

Awesome collection, looks like some great action there. As much as I love the old smokeys, I have to say I really like the first Squirrel photo

Very nice selection there. Really like the 'out-of-context' land/sea-locked 'Bagger' in shot 12.
