Letter from Exmoor: Blown away on a Coastal Safari
Originally posted by Experience Exmoor on 15/07/2014 and by Ester Spears on 12/07/2014
We love the summer months as we get so many daylight hours to go out and explore Exmoor.
One of the safaris we go on in the evenings when the weather allows it, is the Coastal Safari Special. Visitors who book this experience are usually blown away by it. Metaphorically, just to reassure you ;-).
Of course a Coastal Safari along the National Trust track we can access, is spectacular at any time of the year and day, but when the light changes and the sun is setting on these summer evenings, the experience is particularly magical.
Last week we were joined by local photographer Ester Spears on one of our Coastal Safari Specials. He posted these pictures and comments in his blog:
Where Exmoor meets the sea
Please click on the pic to make it big, coz as you know bigger is better.
The starting point for most, Valley of the Rocks (above) and below (normal view).
Here’s the whole coast, looking across Woody Bay, Crock Point, Duty Point, Valley of the Rocks and Foreland Point in the distance with it’s lighthouse.
No photo trip to the moor would be be complete without a deer sighting, these two hinds obliged, chewing on some wild flower meadow in the late evening sun.
Woods, ponies and sunset.
Many thanks to my mate, Neil Osmond of Exmoor Experience, what a great safari. Please check out the website and enjoy the experience of someone who born on the moor (well in a village on the moor); http://www.experienceexmoor.co.uk/
