Thank you for the kind words! It's not a ruin though, it's very much a working church. I think the oof treatment makes it look run down. It's built of Northamptonshire ironstone.
Got a tip for us?

Thank you for the Cornish pictures, Doylem. I grew up in Cornwall, and Porthleven and Mevagissey have never looked so good.
Those seagulls are a pirate bunch!
I went with a tour guide at 6AM and had the place to myself. I was there in May when it's way too hot for me at mid-day (it was barely tolerable at 6AM!)
Here's another that illustrates how unusual this place is...

Incredible almost a surreal in that it looks like a stag/giraffe cross breed... Nice.
The times I've been to a site that would be great if no people were there. Really enjoying this series. Keep them coming.
A brilliant photograph, capturing an eerie and unsettling place. Wonderfully atmospheric.
Loverly shot.

It won't but it has it's own heartbeat in its mechanical movement, which is something the Apple watch will never have
Fantastic - great shot (and marvellous reflexes to have been able to have captured that).

Yes, I, too, love that quiet, and reliable ticking sound that comes from the mainspring of a lovely and well constructed watch.

Nice photo and nice watch! I can understand people wanting to buy a new camera that offers some improved function, but if you've got a very nice watch and you really like it and enjoy wearing it, what's the appeal of buying more? Hope you don't mind my asking, it's not meant as a dig, I'm just curious. Just so you know where I'm coming from, I have a nice Timex with a plastic strap that cost less than £30! If I had a very nice mechanical one I'm sure I'd enjoy wearing it but I wouldn't feel the need for another one.
Are you going to the Photography Show?

Happy to oblige. I'm really enjoying my travels around Cornwall. Spring comes so early this far south, and the light is terrific. I had a wander around the Helford River today, and found this guy delivering gas cannisters to the pub. This is the kind of pic that makes stock sales for me: something that says 'rural economy'...
It becomes a bit of an obsession with watch collecting. Us watch geeks like to have different movements, case styles, colours, manufacture years, different watch manufacturers etc. It's basically man jewellery really

Mate, from a watch addict of the first order. Count yourself lucky you are not a watch guy. It is horrible sometimes. It is a terminal GAS situation. I think MacRy will agree and like he has already stated, it is about the small details, the different movements, a display back here, a rare dial design, a particular clasp or crown mechanism, luminosity, loose relationship to space/deep sea/adventure. It never ends. Still I am getting over my watch addiction now. Well, no actually, I have just replaced it with a legacy lens addiction. DAMN YOU GAS!!!
Lovely shot. There is something special about mechanical watches - often I price I would love to but can't afford! Talking about money - see below. Comments always appreciated.

Thanks all! It was too difficult to capture, it's cropped in pretty tight.
Here's my contribution for the day.
