Godrevy, for Pam.

Photos for Pam - 100 + photos, mainly of Cornwall, because as Pam herself once told me; "That is where my heart is!"

In support of Pam J in her recovery programmes and a sincere wish for a quick and total return to normality!

On a good sunny summer's day on the Southwest Peninsular coast path, Northcliffs above Greenbank Cove. Another strip of coast that fell into the sea a few years ago. I know I posted this before possibly more than once, but I long long ago ran out of fresh Cornwall photos.

Cantueso. The name of this lavender variety. It used to be thought of as the same as a similar-looking Provençal variety; it looks the same. But DNA profiling proved it was distinct. By the way, the two top 'petals' are in fact modified leaves. ADDED NOTE: It seems I was misinformed. This Wilki link is more accurate and up-tp-date! es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavandula_stoechas

H. A. N. W. E. everyone! Above Greenbank Cove, Northcliffs, Cornwall. The Southwest Peninsula Coastpath had already been moved back some years before and you can see a section of the old path here. The following year (2012) and all this had fallen away. Yes, posted before but I like it!

In the Sierra de La Cabrera. Two varieties seen here. I like both the blowsier pure-white petal one and the more compact carmine-flecked one.

Crane Castle was an Iron Age (possibly older) clifftop fort and settlement. It has fallen into the sea over the centuries and I am standing on what would have been the landward battlements. Maybe another 200 years before it falls away completely?
