Where Have You Been In Your Van Today?

Been here at Gwithian Farm Campsite near Hayle in Cornwall for a few days. Right now the sun is out, storm Dave wasn’t bad at all (we just didn’t pop the top and I had the best nights’ sleep since we’ve been here… could’ve been the alcohol though…). Walked to the cove to see seals, then just had a roast at the pub opposite. Cracking site.

Plenty of other Campers here, a couple very similar to ours but not said hi properly to anyone. So if you’re also here gimme a shout!

We last came here 12 years ago in a tent and my Mini Cooper cabriolet - this place is where my dream of owning a camper started AND where my now wife proposed to me!

Proper dream fulfilment trip!
 
Out on a little owl hunt yesterday evening at the top of my road.
Abandoned the van in the middle of the 60 limit, which made for a great photo.

but facing the other way was the reason for the impromptu abandonment.

Sadly it didn't turn round until it was a long way off.
Got some (very heavily cropped) pics of it on the ground in the distance though.

Great pictures, do you get many Puffins your way?!!! Do love a puffin Pic!
 
@Bigsidavies be honest are you really taking these pictures with your phone as while I can get reasonable shots of the moon anything smaller and I zoom in and the background immediately starts jumping around like I'm on a trampoline. 🤕

Hell no. That’s with a Sony A6500 and a 500mm zoom then worked with Lightroom and cropped. They lose quality when compressed to post on here so the original is a fair bit better.
It’s not an expensive set up. Quite an outdated camera now.
