Lands End to Mill Bay:
Most photographers who comes to West Cornwall pay a visit to Lands End but if you only take images from in front of the hotel you are missing some great opportunities.
Walking from the car park down to Greeb Farm-the craft & animal centre-you can go along the coastal footpath to the next headland and find superb views back to Lands End.
If you are feeling energetic keep walking around the headland and on to Mill Bay where to my mind the possibilities are endless and equally good.
Superb granite cliffs and in early summer wildflowers abound. I like to climb down the cliffs, where I can, to nearer sea level but not recommended unless you know where you are going.
It is always a wonder to see huge granite boulders covered in green and orange lichen just perched on top of granite columns waiting to be washed off by a huge autumn/winter storm, maybe in 100's of years time! Waves, in winter, can go right over the Longships lighthouse.

It may not look like it but this was the middle of July.
A December afternoon that began with bright sunshine - then the hail arrived and brought with it amazing scenes
A rough November afternoon
Starting at Lands End and on to Mill Bay on a bright Autumn day-about a mile.
