High water, high tide in Newlyn this morning.


During one of the bigger tides of the year the inshore trawler Harvest Reaper rides high against the fish market this  morning...


inside the market there is only one boat's trip of fish up for auction...


so it's fitting that these big plaice from big Don should make big money on a fish-starved market...


though it's not too often you see one of these fish on the market, this one is somewhat deflated ... 


no prizes for guessing what kind of fish made up the bulk of the Filadelfia's trip...


as they are taken outside ready to be transported as soon as...


yes, it's Toms' alright...


all quiet down the new quay this morning apart from two on a tour...


much still to be done on the good ship Galilean...


while nudging the top of the quay parapet three of the port's big netters will be in port for the next few days over the top of the big spring tide...


and many of the inshore boats will wait to see if the winds drops enough to get out today...


giving Tom something to keep an eye on...


as an early morning prom walker captures the heavy skies hanging over the Bay...


the latest Art Deco house along the prom is nearing completion...


while there are always a good selection of maritime art works at W.H. Lane's auctions.
