St. Nicholas's Chapel. We didn't have time to go up there.

Thanks. That was from just above the carpark.
Very steep descent down to the harbour from there.

Fantastic capture Mr. B.    Great lighting and colors.

I think I overdid the green a little in post.

I think it is fine.  However, we do tend to be our own worse critics.

Thanks. Yes, is a quaint old place, but lots of steep and narrow streets to negotiate

Nice novel view,   did you launch from the carpark?

Yes. The drone was about 15m up and maybe 50m away, to see over the trees and buildings.

That was a really good idea,   that didnt spring to mind for me,  although we dont use car parks.

Well, it was a coach park too
And a bus service every ten minutes to ferry you down into the harbour area and back up the STEEP hill again

Yes. Quite a viewpoint.

Here's one you can use as a screensaver unless you are afraid of extreme heights.

Yeah that would take a bit of pluck

St. Ives is one of my favourite places in Cornwall - lovely capture

Thanks AJ. We loved it immediately - it was our first visit ever.
It helped that the weather was perfect, and the crowds weren't too packed.

There is an awesome seafood restaurant on the front there - not sure if it's still there as my last visit was in 2018

Here's the broader view.
We didn't go in - we were focussed on Ice-creams

Cracking shot!
To the right of this shot is a superb Italian restaurant too. The service in there was exceptional!

And watch out for the seagulls - they are particularly aggressive there!

You evidently spent more time there than we did.
I wish we could have stayed longer.

They didn't seem to be aggressive towards the drone, so far as I could tell.

We did two nights in St. Ives as part of a ten-day tour of the county (with a bit of Devon).

You were lucky - a baby was killed there by a seagull swooping down and pecking it's head! Lot's of warnings around at the time.

Maybe they've calmed down a bit since then

The town did look rather down-at-heel if I'm honest.

That's a polite description - I have not returned!

The coastal scenery is lovely though. I flew the Mavic2Zoom along there quite a bit.
