Cross and Mount
A different view of St Michaels Mount at Marazion, Cornwall, England, with the town of Penzance in the background.
Difficult in how to present this as there are so many angles.
Best Viewed Large.
Hope you like it.

Yes, I do like it. It looks as though there are a lot of ways to photograph this, for sure. Nicely done. x
Richard Veal replied
Many thanks Lori.
Many people take it from the causeway further along the coast, but I saw the opening to the cemetery and thought it an ideal location.

Like this a lot, Richard. Not an area I know well – though my ancestral roots are right there.
