Pembrokeshire Whale Watching and The Milky Way Galaxy Photographs taken at FreshWater West.


Sunset over Manorbier Headland from Manorbier Bed and Breakfast.

Hi everyone,

Pembrokeshire has had some spectacular sunsets recently and clear skies at night to view the stars. I thought you might like to read this little news item with beautiful pictures of the Milky Way Galaxy at Freshwater West at from the Seaweed.  It is hot off the Daily Mail presses!! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1350338/.  His camera is far more expensive than my small Fujifilm but I still enjoyed his magnificent photographs and taking my sunset photograph the other night.

On the wildlife topic there has been some more whales spotted in the Irish Sea just off the Pembrokeshire Coast which I thought might be of interest to any of you who enjoy wildlife.

The Sea Trust are running a number of different trips whale and dolphin watching around the Islands of Ramsey, Skokholm, Grassholm and Skomer during the summer months leaving from Neyland Marina.  No trip is the same and they can only take a group of twelve people.  The first one is on April 26th for further details, prices, dates and information with regard to booking a trip please click on the following link http://www.seatrust.org.uk/.  I am definitely planning on going on some of their trips!
