This image is based from memory of my visits to Newlyn,. The link here is a excellent
blog of brilliant images which always bring back happy memories.newlynharbour.
It reports on the day to day goings on in the harbour and is a very adictive blog...if you know Newlyn at all, or are interested that part of the world, then this is a blog for you.
In these times of rising fuel costs fishermen still have to make a living, but it seems that many of them are finding it increasingly difficult just to make ends meet, Fishermen have always had a hard life but it is something we tend to forget when a plate of Fish and Chips are before you and you are enjoying the food. the Fish has to come from somewhere!

good luck with the degree!

I did my degree as a mature student as well - scary, a buzz, exhausting and I wouldn't have missed a minute of it!

I like these series of works - you've caught the colours of Scotland there and is Newlyn the start of another series?
