Hey Jeff! Thanks very much. This is close to where I was born and raised back in Cornwall, UK and my wife and I spent all of July here. It is a delightful, small commercial fishing village and I managed to shoot this before the tourists cluttered up the place later in the morning. Should you care to wander around my gallery you will find several images of the village and boats.
