With the full moon still in the sky Wherry Town Co-Op gets the first of its deliveries.....
inside the fish market on a raw and rare Monday morning with not more than a dozen boxes of fish for sale, the fridge is given an airing.......
outside, the port is greeted with another stunning dawn display.......
making it the ideal backdrop for a group of visiting art and photography students from St Peter's School, Bournemouth.......
as they make their way down the quay to capture the best of the morning light......
making use of the props to hand.......
but finding time to gather for a group shot to say, "we were there", this, the hardcore group, were unlike their remaining twenty classmates who still languished in their pits unable to face such an early start......
after that it was time for hot chocolate in the Mission. With a team of dedicated staff prepared to put together this kind of varied trip to explore the arts and working life in St Ives, Penzance and Newlyn no wonder the school was awarded Arts College status in 2000

great shots Laurence! The students will love to see these. We have arrived back in Bournemouth safely after a brilliant weekend - will send some student pics your way of the harbour. Was great to meet such a friendly face this morning, thanks for all your help. Chris
No worries Chris! Only too pleased to help out - looking forward to seeing the results of the students' work - there'll be plenty of fish on the market next time you guys are down - for sure!
