The Rolling End by Donald Cameron
the gaping gap and the blinding charge / the furious race and the no holds barred / the one way ticket and the one way back / the tickled pink victim turned tickle black the greased light lollipop and the sticklebrick cold / the rocks of revenge and the ghosts of old / the nothing I’d know if I could be so bold / the ocean’s for taking but if it’s taken I’m sold the water suggesting unsuitable sea / the barren thought process and impassioned pleas / the perilous cod beats the arbroath smokie / the traditions die out with the red kite’s aerie the unconventional folly, ideas flawed by design / the whispering menace hath no reason or rhyme / the toast of the tide as it falls into line / then a generous saviour, you were lucky this time —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—- Location: Auchmithie, Angus, Scotland © Donald Cameron 2009 / Monophotography.co.uk

Used by birds for nesting etc, Enys Dodnan is an imposing natural structure and looks amazing with it’s arch. This is taken from Pordennack point (on the coastal path), probably the best vantage point to capture this structure. NIKON D60 WITH 55-200MM NIKKOR VR LENS

"Not work for the fainthearted" by Malcolm Chant
Wheal Coates tin mine is south of St Agnes, on the cliffs near Chapel Porth. Wheal Coates mine at goes down to the sea and at high tide you can hear the waves crashing against the rocks through a grate on the floor of the ruin. The particularly high quality tin of St Agnes was formed by action between the granite and the complex rock around the area’s cliffs. Wheal Coates mine produced mainly tin, and is 200 feet above the sea. 1872 the mine opened when the Towanroath engine houses for winding and the stamps were built. Wheal Coates, Towanroath Shaft is now Listed Grade II. The pumping engine house of this tin and copper mine was fairly massive to pump out the deeper levels which ran out beneath the sea.
