Some serious bird vs fish action in Sutton Harbour at Plymouth when we came back from field work this afternoon! Sound on! #marinelife #bird #fish #predation #wildlife #marinewildlife #suttonharbour #plymouth #birdvsfish #workperks 🐦⬛ 🐟 😋
Fishing boat alongside the quayside buildings, including the Old Custom House.
Here's the last in my series of Plymouth Miniatures (for now at least), No.9, a view across the inner basin of Sutton Harbour towards the Custom House and Three Crowns pub...

A small watercolour painting of Sutton Harbour, Plymouth
I seem to have settled on a #Plymouth Postcards theme for my current dailyish #art practice. Today I did a rather rushed #watercolour #painting of #SuttonHarbour. Lots went wrong: a flooded chimney, the colour and shading of the water, and much more. Yet, somehow it seems to have turned out okay...

Unable to attack #SuttonHarbour due to the defences, they landed on the beaches below Cattedown. Attacking Plymouth from the east, they burnt all the houses outside Martin’s Gate.

Taken in summer 1989, a candid photo of an anonymous woman at Plymouth's Sutton Harbour. Similar to a b&w version posted yesterday. Landscape format: a woman sitting on a folding chair looking toward Sutton Habour; she has a shopping trolley to her right. The boats and buildings of the harbour are out of focus ahead of her. She may be painting or drawing. Taken on an Olympus OM2SP with 35-70mm lens, using Ektachrome EPP100 slide film, self developed in standard E6 chemical. "Digitized" using a JJC adaptor set.

Taken in summer 1989 at Plymouth, Devon. A landscape format photo, from behind, of an anonymous woman sitting on a folding chair with a shopping trolley to her right, perhaps painting or drawing: she is facing Sutton Harbour with its low buildings ahead of her and beyond those the city of Plymouth. Black and white, taken on Kodak Panatomic X developed in D-76. Shot on an Olympus OM2SP with 35-70mm lens. Negative scanned using a Canon MG8150 and edited in Photoshop.

👀 Shepherds Lane, #SuttonHarbour #Plymouth #Devon
Puzzles 😀
• Now a back lane, but why attention to detail?- granite kerbs & gutters, carefully laid cobbles with beautiful camber.
• Blocked arches, but for what originally?
• Lane leading down to the harbour - did shepherds drive their flocks here?
