Saturday was beautiful and we drove through Torbay, stopping near Thatcher’s Rock to gaze at this view of Lyme Bay. The phone camera doesn’t do landscapes well but gives you the feel at least. Stretching across the sea are some of the little places I’ve taken you, my favourites, Exmouth, Budleaigh Salterton, Sidmouth, Lyme Regis and Charmouth.

Γ¨ fantasticoooooooooooooooooooo!!!

Ah grazie π
I’d like to sit there all day, looking π
A wonderful place to sit and stare π
I love that coastline. Lyme Regis has under gone a brilliant make-over in recent years so it is one of our ‘let’s go on a picnic ‘ places!
It’s favourite of mine too and Charmouth because it’s quieter.
Beautiful.. we have had dull sky for days!!
Hope the sun shines on you soon!
Lovely panorama with bursting buds and some euphorbia (?) in the ‘fore ground completing the frame.
Do you have a boat?
Thanks Tony, is it euphorbia or a wild umbellifer?
I’m much too poor to have a boat!
I get you, but I meant a little skiff to poodle around in. It would be lovely to see the coast from the sea.
Not sure about the plant. I’ll go with you.
looks like wild country … how refreshing and gorgeous!
It’s gorgeous there but its a residential area behind where I as standing – very posh, wealthy area!
i can just imagine, it is annoying isn’t it ….
You are SUCH an amazing photographer. Can I put this as my new wallpaper? Its so peaceful…I just want to sit and stare at it π
Haha with my phone? Not sure about that! Feel free to use the pic for anything you want honey π
love those little green leaves starting to show… no such things here yet…
Really? no sign of spring yet?
O yes, but just the first flowers. Still waiting for some greenery
Oh, it’s a beautiful picture, Gilly!
π
Thanks, I got lucky with my phone on a lovely day!
Aw, the promise of spring makes me humble. Buds are anxious to burst here but the temperature is hesitant to co-operate.
It’s still only around 13 degrees here π¦
It has to warm up soon!
Looks like a beautiful and relaxing place!
Just above where I was standing are the most beautiful homes – a sort of millionaires row, they have the best view ever!
Is it called Lyme Bay as the flowers are Lime?
No, I think the word derives from river or flood, thanks for asking π
I kind og=f knew that but loved the color! π
What a gorgeous scene! Even the clouds seem to have co-operated π
Yes little puff clouds make more interesting photos than plain blue sky!
Looks like a travel magazine ohoto … beautiful
Thanks Issy, it was a perfect day.
I didn’t know there was a bay called Lyme. So beautiful. Somehow, it has a feeling of healing . . .
Lyme Regis to me = Jane Austen’s book, Persuasion.
I didn’t think that there was actually a bay attached (in a way.)
Beautiful photo, beautiful location.
such a peaceful scene. kudos to your cell-phone camera! all that springtime green is lovely too. thanks for sharing.
Lyme Bay is beautiful. So serene. The camera phone did a great job.
What a magical photo, Gilly.
What a gorgeous view! Beautiful capture. Margie
