Sometimes I find that place almost overwhelmingly impressive.

But, although the landscape is stark, the atmosphere is never lonely - even when it is comletely empty of people.

I took it on the stretch between the Weymouth / Portland Causeway and Chesil Beach - where The Fleet used to run until it was diverted into Portland Harbour at Ferrybridge.

When you say it 'evokes happy memories' - is this because you know the place or somewhere like it?

By the way, thank you too for being the first person to leave a message on this new blog!

The photos on your new blog are lovely. Individual and thought provoking.; August 3, 2008 at 8:03 PM

The coastline along here is quite tremendous and varies between the stark (as in this picture) the dramatic (Purbeck and Portland) the traditional English Seaside (Weymouth) and the picnics- rockpools-and-Famous-Five kind.
