Dorset 7 Kimmeridge Bay

 A few images from an afternoon visit to Kimmeridge Bay where the tide was coming in fast covering the rock pavement. Taken with ultra HDR mode on the Fuji which allows the full tonal range to be captured accentuating the colours. Last two image, Barry, Debs and Jim in action - some of our party of 12 from Cambridge CC enjoying a week of sunshine in Dorset.

Dorset 6 Kingcombe Centre Wildlife

The Kingcombe National Nature Reserve and the Dorset Wildlife Trust Kingcombe Centre border our accommodation at Higher Kingcombe so a walk there, morning drink and a ramble in the meadows is always on the agenda for our CCC trips here. The insects etc are much sparser this year but still some good finds - Crab Spider, lots of flies, bees and beetles

Dorset 5 Fern Lane Kingcombe

We found this wonderful lane near our accommodation in Dorset by accident but a great find with vibrant ferns lining both sides of the track.

Dorset 4.Tyneham the Forgotten Village

On Sunday we visited Tyneham, the village that time forgot. It was evacuated in 1943 to provide a practice range for the army and never repopulated. Some buildings are now derelict but the Church, Farm and Schoolroom are complete as they were pre1943. Infrared images on Sony RX100
