Kimmeridge to Swyre Head Purbeck

Another part of the Jurassic coast on the Isle of Purbeck I had not covered was the Kimmeridge Ledges.   The plan was to park up in Kimmeridge and make my way back via Swyre Head, hopefully catching a setting moon over the bay.

Dancing Ledge Purbeck Dorset

There were lots of gaps along the Jurassic coast on the Isle of Purbeck I had not covered.  Studying the National trust Dorset Landmarks, Spyway leading down to Dancing Ledge looked like a good place for some seascape photography and a coastal walk.

I compiled my best landscape photography for each month for 2016 so here is a new compilation for 2017.  In 2017 I was out each month with my camera and moved from Worcestershire to Dorset and then to East Sussex.  Again, think of it like a calendar.
