Sherkin Island

as seen from the Beacon.

A very busy day. This morning was bright but I didnt get a chance to get out with the camera till this evening. By then the mist was rolling in and the light grey and dull again.
I took a walk down at the beacon where the mist was joined by the smoke haze of several huge fires burning on every side. It smelled horrible and spoiled the walk. Large swathes of land on every hillside are charred and blackened. You have to feel for all the birds and other wildlife whose habitats are destroyed.
