Cornish greetings cards – 4 pack; from original Sent From The Sea photographs.
Despite growing up in Cornwall, I have never travelled around this gorgeous county as much as I have in 2022! I’ve traded at makers markets in some of Cornwall’s most gorgeous locations, from St Ives, Porthleven, Padstow, Mevagissey …. I’ve spent a lot of time in charming harbour villages!
These cards are from original photographs which I have taken on my travels, attending markets, beachcombing, or enjoying a rare stroll along the beautiful Southwest Coast Path.
With 8 images available, you can choose any four to tailor-make your pack. Choose from:-
- You’ll find two images of St Ives – one of the boats in the harbour, under a beautiful blue sky. The second, an atmospheric image of the harbour with heavy clouds, and a beautiful beam of sunshine hitting the sea.
- The image of Porthleven shows people standing on the end of the harbour watch the sunset – I took this the evening before my birthday, when I treated myself to an overnighter at the Harbourside Inn, after trading at the Shipyard Market all day.
- Another atmospheric image is the one I took while on one of my frequent beachcombing trips to Pentewan beach. The image shows the silhouette of a fisherman casting is line from the shore, with a view across the headlands of St Austell Bay.
- The black & white photograph is of the engine house at Wheal Coates, on the north coast near St Agnes; a remnant of the tin mining industry. You can find more information about this in my blog.
- A very colourful image is the greetings card of Fowey Estuary, which the vibrant yellow plants in the foreground, the view across the estuary to Polruan, and the gorgeous cloudscapes.
- Another beautiful sunrise was captured at The Towans, Hayle …. the sky beautifully reflected on the wet sand.
- The final card shows a sunflower field in St Austell, which was planted to raise funds for Cornwall Hospice. I took the photograph as the sun was setting, with a beautiful tree in the mid-ground. You can find more information about this, and more photos, in my blog.
