St. Nectans Glen Rocky Valley Waterfall
This really is a beautiful place to visit whether you live in Cornwall or are down there on holiday. Take a slow walk along the lovely trail to reach the waterfall and you’ll hear the power of the water beating down before seeing it. People come here from all over the world to be at one with themselves, to meditate or just to rest. Some people make a shrine from a personal item and leave it there hoping for healing for themselves, a love one, a friend or anyone on their healing list.

Lori Peters
i see a lot of beautiful waterfalls but this one is So nice. It looks like the water is pouring through an underground cavern or something. It is very special and unusual.
Anthony Hedger replied
Thank you very much Lori for your kind comment. The water drops down from about 60 foot up and through the natural hole in the rock and the noise its makes is deafening and so powerful.

Anthony Hedger replied
Thank you Bianca for your wonderful comment on this shot, I am touched by your excitement however my dear friend, this was taken last summer on my other camera which is a compact, a Fuji S7000 at 6 million pixels stretched to 12 million. I can’t upload anything from the Nikon just yet as my own computer (laptop) is still in the shop for repair. I am impressed though with the fantastic quality of the Nikon from what I have seen in my test shots.
