West Dorset Autumn Break Part 1 Golden Cap

I am splitting this into two separate posts because of the amount of photos involved on our weeks holiday at Golden Cap Chideock on the Dorset /Devon borders in a mobile home we shared with lifelong friends.
The weather on the Sunday 23rd was awful couldn`t get out all day, thankfully the unsettled weather of sunshine and showers for the rest of the week didn`t stop us from getting out and about to various places. Mixed weather patterns and different lighting conditions make far more interesting photo subjects.

I do recommend for the best effect viewing the pictures full screen by clicking on them

Golden Cap from Seatown beach it`s the highest peak on the Jurassic coast the spume from the sea is  making the photo hazy in the background

A double rainbow (just) shows the very unsettled weather this is Seatown beach looking west

The sun not long from setting on Seatown beach I couldn`t prevent the lens flare completely

Golden Cap (centre picture) viewed from the beach at Lyme Regis ( the seagull was a bonus)

 I am standing some way up on the opposite hill the pub is our local, the site being a couple of minutes away to the right, due to the very wet summer there have been several falls of rock from the cliff face causing some of the Jurassic coastal paths to be closed, you can see a recent fall in this picture

Golden Cap Holiday Park, the pub and beach is just out of shot to the left of picture

Found this huge toadstool/mushroom (about 130mm across) on one of my walks across the field

Walk up the hill a climb of several hundred feet traverse across some way, down and over the little bridge to home and a cup of tea
