St. Ives Collage

Still enjoying the company of my visitors. Yesterday was nice and we had a "potter" in St. Ives and I took some nice pictures which I will show you at the weekend when I will have a bit more time

On my desk - this is a little collage of St. Ives I'm working on. Here I am just arranging the fabrics, lace and bits and playing with the composition

The shells are from Porthminster beach















I used a photo I took in February and printed it out in very pale sepia. The sky was a white grey and it was very bright that day. I love the light in St. Ives














Behind the lighthouse pier you can see what remains of the wooden posts of another pier. You can only see them at low tide but I like the composition of the posts
