Cycle race underway near Lynton - this area is called "little Switzerland" so you can imagine the gradient!

I quite liked the way the path disappeared into darkness whilst the sun brought out the colours of the dormant trees.

Part eaten by slugs but still bright in the shade of the spruce trees.

We stayed here for 8 nights, great breakfasts. Great Owners.

A change of venue this week. I am revisiting my time spent in Devon. This is a shot of Ilfracombe Harbour from one of the pleasure boats. I loved the fact that there was always so much going on around the Harbour area... and you could get such great fresh fish and seafood served in the local restaurants.

While checking the new lambs, I couldn't resist these views of the setting sun...

A sycamore trunk pushing its way through the stones of the hedge-bank.

Three days later - more horse mushrooms. In a carrier improvised from silage wrap.
