Tonight's raft race at West Bay in aid of the RNLI was such fun as always for both the rafters and the public. Brilliantly organised by Bridport Round Table the place was packed as you can see and as usual makes some great pictures for me. Hope you like them and please tag anyone you spot in them.

I had a very special day in London yesterday at the official opening of the exhibition of winners of the South West Coast Path Photographer of the Year which I was very fortunate to have won with my picture entitled "Falling Fog'. Pictured here with my partner Jude, it was certainly very hot in 'the smoke'!
The exhibition run by the South West Coast Path association and sponsored by Great Western Railway is on the concours at Paddington Station and runs until the 31st July.

Friday favourite: Sunrise in Winter, I sold a huge A0 (46" x 32") canvas of this one on Wednesday and is consistently a favourite of many people who visit and buy from my shops.

I spent a bit of time on west beach yesterday with my daughter taking advantage of the excellent beach mats for wheelchair users that are put down every year for the summer, it allows her access to the beach - an impossibility without. I also spotted a lovely driftwood 'henge' someone had patiently constructed. 28/06/2026
