FEBRUARY 2020 TVFTDO


Okay, so we are back from our holidays - and thanks to David for keeping an eye open for a pic (his is the very first pic in the album - an impressive shot of a Royal Navy Merlin flying through).

But so far, for the rest of the month, there is the continuing construction - everywhere !

Some sunrises overthe sea and moonrises over the Daymark

A very brown river following storm Dennis.

A new loco over inn Kingswear.

And plenty more to come.

There are 79 photos in this album over two pages. Click on a thumbnail to see it larger. You can even start a slide show.

Moonrise over the Daymark (Kingswear). Shot on an iPhone which can handle the extremes of light. Not as sharp as a Nikon though.

Still experimenting with the iPhone. Whilst it catches the variance of shade pretty good it does tend to over-saturate the more nuanced colours. And I hate over-saturation. Anyway, this is a gentle sunrise out to sea from Dartmouth.
