St Ives is full of stairs, but I hadn't photographed this flight before
 

The rooftops of Stennack School, which is now a business centre - I wonder where the kids go to learn now

 

 

 

This is the view from the lounge of our holiday flat

Juliet on the beach with The Island in the background. The children in the pit are nothing to do with us - I just wanted them there to balance the composition

The fat ghost with Juliet in this picture is in fact me, puffing from the ten second sprint from the camera to the rock next to her

 

Juliet and her Dad

I don't know who this man is, but he provides a perfect division between contrasting rock and sea textures
 
This is the head by Porthgwidden Beach, sunset limned on top and with a returning fishing boat.
 

 

The balcony of the flat is the perfect place to see Penwith's ubiquitous sunsets.

These are a tiny sample from many pictures this evening.

There is a huge number of gulls in St Ives - more than I remember (and far fewer cats - no, surely, it couldn't be...) and they were constantly intruding. I can assure everyone that the Susan Polis Schultz character of some of these and ensuing pictures is entirely accidental...
