I was in Cornwall for Christmas so it seemed an appropriate choice for the letter C. However as I am also publishing posts about Cornwall on my Travel Tales blog I decided to be more specific and selected some views of the Camel Estuary for ABC Wednesday
The tide was out and there was dredging work going on.
Dredging is such a big job! I think it's amazing the equipment doesn't sink into the sand.
ReplyDeleteeven tractors and heavy diggers can be art with a camera. love both those shots
ReplyDeleteWonderful photo's ..... bringing a camera along on trips is always a good thing... hope you've enjoyed it.

ReplyDeleteI love the beach and dredging always fascinates me. The name though? Why camel?
