Wouldn't surprise me if you were asked what you would like to drink in Cornish there! (I bought a booklet "learn Cornish") when I was there some 10 years ago). Beautiful area!

Well I learnt something new, the difference between Cornish and Devonshire teas, althought my wife my kick me if she sees me typing this seeing she is British, but that aside what a wonderful capture of the street and buildings, a good choice of B&W without colors all the different textures stand out more

@JJ: Thank you very much JJ, were in Britain is she from?

I like the way we are carried through this shot by the composition and the flowing lines of the stoney floor in this courtyard.

Really nice! It seems so "usual" which makes it difficult to take a good foto. Well done!
