Mid-week fish market at Newlyn as the summer sun begins to show.
First light...
over Mount's Bay...
and this morning we have 100% visibility...
giving these standing stones a surreal look...
as they dominate the skyline on the beach...
a quiet night in...
a slightly slinky monk...
marvellous megs...
and the usual monk tails made up a big part of the fish this morning...
along with some good shots of ray...
and these stunning red mullet from the Harvest Reaper...
at the other end of the fish market five tons of hake was up for grabs form the Britannia V...
and a few big examples of tub gurnard...
and black bream...
name these fishy tails?...
the latest addition to the Rowse fleet is benefiting from the good drying weather...
while the Brixham beam trawler Carhelmar has made good use of cable ties to protect the new paint on her whaleback...
out @ThroughtheGaps for the Britannia IV...
tools of the fisherman's trade...
aboard the Billy Rowney...
sun's nearly up.
