After a comment from blogger Nikki-ann noted that my pictures seemed to be showing sunnier weather than in her area, I thought I'd do a few snapshots from yesterday. It's where we had a very late lunch (5 pm) and shows more of that end of summer sunshine.
It also gave us a chance to wander, and look across to the small island just visible in the picture below, to the left of the yacht.
Time for a small exploration and we soon found high ground with a better view of the island.
By now, the sun was setting and the sky was losing its bluest hue. We were close to a lighthouse and to its right hand side we could see a distant warship.
I assumed it would be from the Royal Navy, but a closer inspection revealed otherwise.
It was D646, a French F70 anti-submarine frigate FS Latouche Treville. Moored just off the shoreline, it released nonchalant plumes of smoke, in the now setting sun.

Super photos. Beautiful blue. There is something unique about a warm sunny autumnal day - fleeting though it is.
Pat: Yes, although I'm still considering it to be the end of summer until we get more of those brown leaves everywhere.
Looks wonderful there and such beautiful weather :)
Nikki-ann : Yes, not bad for south west England.
