This place is pretty much home now.

Constantine Bay.
I went down to Constantine yesterday to sort some things out and also went for a walk in the sand dunes to take some photos. I had forgotten that I had my camera set on JPEG format instead of RAW. Safe to say I won’t be doing that again, the photos looked fine on the camera screen but as I wanted to do some post processing to them, the difference was massively noticeable. It makes me wonder how I used to get by with shooting in JPEG in the first place.

Bury your Christmas tree at Constantine.
If you’re in the Constantine area this Sunday then there is an opportunity to bury your old Christmas tree in the sand dunes on the beach in an effort to help stabilise them. As you may or may not know, sand dunes are delicate ecosystems and if they are interfered with too much then then can decline rapidly. Even just people walking on them and kill the marram grass which long roots help to hold the dunes together. So this is an excellent opportunity to help the local environment.
It is happening from 11am – 2am.

Cornwall Out of Season.
Thanks to my friends at Constantine Bay Surf Store I have just found out that one of my pictures has been featured on the website www.callingcountry.co.uk, it can be found here.
Here are a couple screen shots and the original image;
I took this image of Ben Bennett on a very cold day last year and I managed to get a double page spread in PitPilot Surfing Magazine with a shot from the same day. (Below)
I also got a small inset photo in the magazine which is of Ben trying to warm up his feet in the public toilets hand dryer, I thought it was quite a funny spectacle and decided it had to be documented.
