Passing USA air traffic leave leave their mark in the clear skies above the harbour.....
another example of artwork appearing on the refrigerated fish transport......
at the end of the 'silly season' its 21 apiece for the lifeboats - maybe the result should be decided on the next callout......
actor Timothy Spall is currently touring the coast of the UK on his Dutch style barge, The Princess Matilda, with the occasional attentions from a BBC film crew......
sorting fish on the market, an oblique reminder of the heyday of distant water boats, standing thigh deep in fish after hauling, the men would start gutting and repeat, "one in the hand, one in the air, one in the washer, one in the hand, one in the air, ...".....
Newlyn is lucky enough to have possibly the finest fish landed on any market in the UK, here the Scorpio puts another superb trip ashore.....
including these huge red mullet, undoubtedly some of which will find their way on to the slab of a certain Chelsea Fishmonger.
