A Day Trip Around Kent Part Two With Some Shadows

Before and after photoshop.
This cottage is next to the beach at Grain.
The roses were lovely-with at least three colours on their petals.
A stormy Rochester High Street with pretty bunting.
Dover Ferry Port viewed from the car!
Some of the extensive grafitti on the white cliffs-chalk is so soft and easy to carve I suppose.
It provided some shadows for me.
Flints peeping out of the chalk.

There'll be seagulls over, the white cliffs of Dover, tomorrow, just you wait and see. It was dizzyingly high and slightly scary.
There were lots of wild flowers.

Dungeness was our last stop. We went for a beachcombing walk. I found little bones in fascinating shapes and bleached beautifully. One of them is a musical fishbone which I will show you tomorrow. Above is Derek Jarman's cottage, the garden still lovely. Dungeness is such a strange place and I would love to have a little cottage there and beach comb every day. As we walked on the beach we kept hearing the whistle of the steam trains that potter backwards and forwards between Dungeness and Hythe. We had fish and chips at the Pilot Inn before heading home. It was such a lovely day!
I could use these pictures to demonstrate triangles and rectangles.


While we were on the beach I remembered this film. I would really like to see it again as I can't remember it very well, but do remember enjoying it. Some of these photos contain shadows. For more shadows from around the world, visit HeyHarriet here.
