Dartmouth Crab Festival 2011

Yesterday I went to the Dartmouth Crab Festival, weather behaved and turn out was good, enjoyed crab cracking demo, live music and magic, boarded a crabbing vessel and of course ate some delicious crab!

What it's all about...

Lots going on...

Aboard a crabbing vessel...

Freshly landed crabs, they didn't hang around long but just managed this shot...

Magic, a boy was looking through the deck trying to find the card he chosen not realising it was on the magicians head!...

Music from the Nauti Buoys...

Dressed or undressed crab...

Cracking crab demo...

Hands on from members of the public giving it a go...

The finished result from someone who had never done it before...

My starter that evening...

A bit of stick bashing going on...

First Post - Clovelly, North Devon

First post on my brand new blog!


I'll be using this blog to post photographs from either my professional camera or just snaps from compact camera or phone. I feel so lucky to live in this part of the world and enjoy travelling about Devon and the South West, I usually have a camera with me and so I'll share a few pics of my travels here.


It was my birthday at the beginning of March, it was a beautiful day so I took a trip to Clovelly in North Devon, really nice to see the place sans tourists! Here's a few photo's...
