Days after having our little girl we went for a lovely walk around Instow, where we were living at the time and took a few snaps. These are a few of them.

Ilfracombe at Low Tide
One thing I love about the North Devon coast is the number of rocks and rock pools that are exposed at low tide. It's so good to see children getting excited about the creatures they can find in these small micro worlds between the tides.
I liked the way the irregular patterns of the trees contrast the rectangular window and doors. Plus the three horizontal texture areas of tin, render and stone.
It's a barn with a long history, right in the centre of the village. It was a garage in the 1930s with a hand operated petrol pump, since been used for a variety of storage solutions.
Woolacombe is a seaside resort on the coast of North Devon, England, which lies at the mouth of a valley (or 'combe'). The beach is 2.5 miles long, sandy and gently sloping. The beach has Blue Flag and Premier Seaside Beach awards for its cleanliness, water quality and facilities. It is a popular destination for surfing, and there are many establishments offering tuition and equipment hire. The waves are gentle when the tide is out and are more vigorous when the tide is in.
