Great Britain!!!!!!!!

I like this one of a Union Jack - perhaps an identifying flag from a small vessel - now in tatters stranded helplessly on a jagged rock, its former glory drained away with no one left to salute it - which perhaps represents the state of the UK at the moment?.

Green canopy of Earl's Drive

Earl's Drive leads from Cawsand past Pier Cellars to Penlee Point. Paths then carry on around the rest of the Rame Peninsula. Earl's Drive is not open to traffic other than for access and some of the land around Pier Cellars is owned by the MOD and strictly off limits. The fresh Spring foliage gives the path an overwhelming green aura at this time of year.

Building above Captain Blake's Point

I have no idea what this building is for. The coast path (following footpath 617/13/1) runs in front of it.
