Amelia's photos

To the right of this photo is the lifeboat station, and the ramp is visible in the photo. Established over 200 years ago, Exmouth Lifeboat Station opened a new station and boathouse in 2010, which houses a Shannon class lifeboat and an inshore D class lifeboat. The lifeboat is called 'R and J Welburn' and was funded by a generous legacy from Mrs Joan Welburn who lived in Sidmouth and named in memory of her husband Raymond. The naming ceremony occurred on 9 May 2015.

A relatively quiet Devon town with a pebbly beach, and a lovely walk along the esplanade. This view is taken at the east end of the town overlooking the River Otter and the salt marshes beyond. A bird watcher's paradise at certain times of the year. The bench faces south towards the sea.

SC47 – Post May 28 – Relationship between man and animal These three dogs were looked after by the woman with the baby while their owner went into the local NT shop. They were rewarded by bring given treats.

Adrian was in charge of the camera while I went for a paddle. I wondered why I ran out of battery charge that evening.

Silene dioica. Red campion.

SC45 = Abstraction I took this using the shutter speed priority and vertical camera movement with a shutter speed of 0.25. This is a photo of one of our many bookcases, and it's just possible to recognize a clock at the bottom of the photo. Both Pips are taken in the kitchen, the first one has my purse and a packet of tissues on the top of the kitchen top, and the second one includes a magazine called 'The Oldie'.

Grange Court, built in 1633, is the last surviving market house known to be built by John Abel, a local master carpenter. Today it is a Community, Heritage and Enterprise Hub, owned by the people of Leominster through the LARC Development Trust. It is a place for people to meet, work, learn and enjoy! We found this place to be an excellent community centre. There were lovely displays of needlework showing the history of the UK, as well as artwork by schoolchildren. A yoga class was stretching in one room, and the cafe was run by two volunteers - a lovely lunch outside in the garden. A really nice place to visit. The second PiP is for Nick who is always searching for mermaids.
