Tha apartment is minutes from the coast path and a lovely walk to Marazion 🏰

St. Michael's Mount, located off the coast of Marazion in Cornwall, England, is a captivating tidal island steeped in history and myth. At low tide, a causeway emerges, allowing visitors to walk to the island; at high tide, it becomes inaccessible, adding to its mystical allure. Crowned by a medieval castle and a charming village, the island is dominated by the striking silhouette of the castle, which dates back to the 12th century.

Legend has it that the mount was once the site of a miraculous vision of St. Michael the Archangel, hence its name. The castle has served various purposes over the centuries, from a priory to a fortress and a private residence, now managed by the National Trust. Its architecture and interior reflect its rich history, with elements ranging from medieval to Victorian.

Visitors can explore the castle's rooms, including the medieval church and the Victorian-era living quarters, offering a glimpse into the lives of its former inhabitants. The island's subtropical gardens, established in the 18th century, add a splash of color and tranquility, offering stunning views of the surrounding coastline.

Today, St. Michael's Mount stands as a testament to centuries of human endeavor and a cherished landmark in Cornwall, captivating visitors with its blend of history, natural beauty, and spiritual resonance.

The Great Orion Nebula & St Michael's Mount 🌌🏰

A lot of planning went into this image of M42 setting behind St Michael's Mount! I'm so happy that everything came together, and it aligned perfectly behind the castle 😊 (check out the timelapse in the comments). I will probably capture it again sometime, perhaps when the lights are off, and maybe with more data for Orion. I recorded some behind the scenes video of the night too, so I will probably make a video soon about how I captured this image ✨ Let me know if that's something you'd like to see.
