The harbour for Lyme Regis is called the Cobb. No satisfactory explanation of the name exists but a man-made construction has served as a refuge here since at least 1313. The earliest known drawing, made in 1539, shows a basic shape similar to the present construction, and this was built after the westerly gales breached the breakwater in 1824. There have been additions since that date but the major part of the Cobb dates from then. It was connected to the mainland in 1756 and the North Wall was built in 1823.
Another shot from yesterday's venture to Lyme Regis. A more traditional Landscape shot, this was taken a few minutes after my photo from yesterday. I really loved how the rising sun gave The Cobb a gorgeous golden glow.
We arrived early at Lyme Regis and were greeted by a cracking early morning sky as viewed from the Cobb.

We visited Lyme Regis again at the weekend to catch the sunrise. The sky was great but it started to rain quite heavily. However after looking behind me I saw a magical full rainbow over the harbour. It's a shame I didn't have a wide angle lens to capture the whole thing but such is life!

Made my first visit to the Cobb last week with my camera! Been down there a few times with the family but not with camera....
light and sun was pants so went for a different approach..... long exposure...... 10 stop Lee stopper and 601 seconds later .......
The Cobb situated in Lyme Bay. Long exposure using the firecrest 16stop nd filter. Captured just after sunrise and the conversion to black and white.
On September 8th a photo excursion was operated from Scranton, Pa. to Tobyhanna, Pa. over the Delaware lackawanna trackage with an ABA set of Lackawanna F3s. The trip was operated by the ARHS during their 2018 convention. Thanks goes out to everyone who made this trip possible, it was very well organized.
A quick visit to Lyme Regis and the Cobb at sunrise and the very last photo to be taken on my "Very Old" K5II.
I found this story about woman that worked at this canning company written by Ed Neckar: My grandmother worker there in the 40 & 50s. They lived in Montfort, 5 mi west of Cobb. She would get up at 4:00am, have a piece of bread, maybe with bacon grease on it and a cup of coffee. Then if my grandfather who was a farm laborer had work in that direction he would drive her to Cobb. If his work was elsewhere, she would walk. She never knew if they had work or not until she got there. They would work as long as they had product to can. Sometime until after dark. Then she'd walk home. They were paid in cash on the day they worked. Or sometimes in irregulars, cans that were damaged or mislabeled or not labeled at all. If she got irregulars she would carry them home. Often when we visited we would have Surprise Vegtable with supper since we didn't know what was in the can until it was opened. More history: The Cobb Canning Factory was built in 1923 in Cobb, Wisconsin and began its first canning season in 1924. This factory played a significant role in the local economy and was part of the broader canning industry that flourished in Wisconsin during that time
These are the trails in Cobbs Hill Park, the area is called Washington Grove and this is also the spot where the water tanks with beautiful art are.
The clouds seem to follow the curve of the breakwater, taken before the sun breached the horizon. A little breezy and chilly but worth it :-)
I felt sorry for the tog next to me as his camera took a nose dive lens first, when he turned to get something from his bag, camera survived, lens wasn't so lucky....
The sun did not show up at sunrise in Lyme Regis this morning, just a thick bank of cloud on the horizon. Some nice deep dark clouds though which gave some contrast to curve of The Cobb.
This is a few minutes walk from home and I have made photographs of it on numerous occasions. It's look changes with the light. I would love to go back in time and see it in use.
This about the best I got from a trip to Lyme Regis this morning with Kelvin Bell.
The sunrise did not come to much again hey ho.
Since the Mandalorian Season 2 finishes today, I decided to make a Mando and a character from each episode this season! Slight spoilers if you haven't kept up, obviously. I did take these pictures earlier this week, so I had to guess who would be in the last episode, but Moff Gideon ended up being a pretty safe bet haha.
