Thanks Keith, there's a chap on the Registry trying to convince me it's the Alpine Road in the Santa Cruze Mountains. I'm not sure were both talking about the same photo. :)

Dan's drive your 356 day photo. I've nudged him so hopefully he'll be along soon but I'm sure Keith's right about Chesil

I think the confusion here stems from the fact the sequence on the Registry photos is not static - Dan's photo was #7 when Ron started the thread but is currently 6th in the sequence...

Are my eyes playing a trick on me, or is that bonnet squished somehow?
