| Posted Comments: bill and amanda gibs (2003-09-10) | we had a quiet hour here a pic nic admired the wonderful panarama across to trescos white beaches a tranquil place knowing a little of its past we wondered what stories these stones could tell us | sparky (2004-03-17) | These are some fantastic photographs! Having been lucky enough to work a Summer season in Scilly, it brings back some awesome memories of roaming around the downs and over cliffstops, taking in scenery and an overwhelming amount of Prehistoric archaeology! Your photos, almost do the wonder of this place justice ;o) |
