Polperro is a fishing port on a rocky coastline near Looe, with narrow, cobbled alleys and houses perched on slopes above the harbour.
Much of the village dates to the 13th century, and for many years the prosperity of Polperro was founded on the pilchard fishery. When the pilchard fishery waned, smuggling became perhaps the major source of Polperro's riches. One well-known smuggler was Willy Wilcox, who, according to legend, was lost in the bewildering network of caves that wind through the cliffs.
Now the village relies on tourism, with visitors drawn by the tightly packed lanes and idyllic fishermen's' cottages that line the picturesque harbour. Most of the buildings near the harbour are untouched by time, giving Polperro a quaint, old world feel.
A wider view of Beadnell harbour , this time showing the lime kilns which date from ca. 1800 and were used to produce lime (used as a fertilizer) from crushed local limestone. Their use to produce lime was very short-lived and they were no longer used for this purpose much beyond 1820. They are now used for storage by local fishermen.
Beadnell harbour is a rarity: a west-facing harbour on an east-facing coast.
The people in the shot seem to be practising social distancing a few months ahead of time! Something I was about to mess up when I went and sat next to my bike!
Project 365, 2022 Edition: Day 141/365
We arrived safely at our Fletcher Lake cottage for the long weekend. May offers spectacular wildflowers but also clouds of black flies. Several painted trilliums bloom beside the dock -- Trillium undulatum.
We have no WiFi or mobile phone access, but oddly enough there's free data on the phone. I can upload photos from my computer by tethering with a mobile hotspot on the phone. However, I won't have time to browse much until we're home on Tuesday.
Thank you to everyone who visits, faves, and comments.

Many thanks for all the kind comments and faves - they're very much appreciated :)
Another view of the tenders stranded at low tide along the Pittwater.
This one stylised with some textures from the Aussie bushland.
While this house near the coast of Manie carries the signs of age and wear, it remains tethered to electricity and the 21st century.
The one-armed monk,
Trappist, by order
swings, tethered
to the trapeze bar
that moves pendular
in rhythm with chants
and recitations
of all the brothers beneath.
The Abbot shouts upward,
Brother, descend.
There's beer to pour
and cheese to stir.

In the last few days I have been reviewing some old pictures from a few years ago. I never processed them because I did not know exactly what to do with them. I have given it another try.
And is a photograph of a flying man street photography?? :-))
Sunset on the Lancaster Canal near Garstang, Lancashire. This barge was called "Predator", hence the title! The owner had obviously cut quite a lot of firewood to keep his wood burner going, looking at the amount of saw dust on the towpath!
The colours in the sky were magical!
Lightroom classic tethering doesn't work for me anymore -so having to learn Eos version!
