St. Ives, Cornwall

A highly regarded holiday resort seaside town renowned for its number of artists


As I was going to St. Ives
I met a man with seven wives

And every wife had seven sacks
And every sack had seven cats
And every cat had seven kits

Kits, cats, sacks, wives
How many were going to St. Ives?

Stay tuned for the answer to the famous riddle tomorrow....

Ha ha Jay... first off thank you for that riddle... you know I was there too, just a few weeks ago.. and for the life of me I couldnt remember that rhyme.. I was saying the first part over and over in my head.. but the rest wouldnt come..so had to laugh reading your words here... and a fine photo of St Ives it is too.. very lovely.. and wasnt it a lovely beach..very eyecatching.

I'd love to be the "one" going to St. Ives! What a gorgeous scene! Fantastic vantage point, and a beautifully composed image, Jay! V~

Beautiful scene! Very well composed, Jay.

Well that depends. Seeing as it was you Jay, I'd say when they saw you they probably all turned around and followed you just out of curiosity to see what you were going to do with all that equipment. LOL
What an excellent scene! A perfect capture and great POV. \/
