Aerial photography from three locations yesterday afternoon, focussing on The Ayres.  This is apparently the newest part of the Isle of Man at around 5,000 years old,band is technically known as a 'raised beach', indeed from Blue Point you can see the old cliff line running inland.  It is an area of grass covered duneland and designated as a nature reserve.   DJI Phantom 4 Pro  6/6/19

These pictures were 'Plan B' from yesterday afternoon.  'Plan A' had been to walk around Sartfell to Glion Kiark for some ground level and aerial photography, but the cloud was sitting on the upper slopes of the hill and producing some light rain so I continued on the coast at Lhiannag, still a bit grey there but at least no rain.  I walked down to the beach for some pictures of the rocks at low tide, then some aerial pictures from the tops.  I've started with an aerial Panorama though, to give an overall picture of the area.  Panasonic TZ200 & DJI Spark  13/6/19
Down at beach level.
Some wild flower close up pictures from the walk back up from the beach.
Taking a camera into the air for some shots you just can't get from ground level.
Finally, just a couple of pictures on the walk back to the main road.

Braddan old church and the Celtic crosses inside.  The present day building dates from 1773 although it is believed that parts of the structre were from the older church built in the 12th centure on an even older Keeil site.  Inside there are preserved Celtic crosses dating from 600 to 1265 AD.  The church was replaced by the current Braddan church (just across the road) in around 1876.  Panasonic TZ200 26/6/19

A ground level panorama taken from the edge of Chibbanagh Plantation at Braaid, looking across the central valley of the Isle of Man.  This view is said to have inspired the painter John Martin, for his huge  'Plains of Heaven' work exhibited in the Tate Gallery, London.  Martin lived the latter part of his life in the Isle of Man and died here in 1854 and is buried in Braddan Old Church Cemetary.
Stitched from seven original pictures.  Panasonic TZ200 26/6/19
