Penzance promenade in winter weather.

 With the winter weather making its mark, Penzance promenade is awash at high water as gale force winds sweep across the South Western Approaches......
 under the shelter of Newlyn market where things are a little quieter, ray wings from the Sapphire.........
 and red mullet......
 and Dover soles and as she's the only decent size trip of trawl fish up for auction as gales keep the boats in port all sure to make good money this morning.......
 with a handful of bass thrown in for good measure.......
at the other end of the market, literally, there's a ton and a half of quality hake from the gill netter Govenek of Ladram, good to see some of her fish back on the auction floor..........
at present, the only Newlyn boat at sea is the flagship of the Stevenson fleet, the Cornishman, seen here recorded on the VesselTracker AIS tacking software some 70 miles SSW of Newlyn in the 'deep water' on Sunday.
