Beautiful evening, cold wind

Trees are silhouetted black against the sky - a clear expanse unsullied by even one cloud - pink/yellow low in the West merging into pale blue and deeper, darker blue out into space.  The air is still in this corner sheltered from the cold North East breeze and tiny bats are dipping and diving for insects in ideal conditions.


This is how Porthmeor Beach looked around an hour ago as the sun started to set - lovely, but very, very chilly!
