Managed to get out for a bit yesterday. As usual, the weather did't play nice (supposed to clear up in the afternoon) but still managed to get some shots despite being wet and windy. A seasonal view of Tryfan in Snowdonia. Comments always welcome.

What a beautiful location. I always use my own wallpapers, so I only normally see the install one.

Well done!

Cheers folks. Yes, bad weather is good for landscapes but at around 40F with wind and drizzle/rain it’s a struggle to keep the front of the lens dry! A few more to come.

Looking forward to them. Your sacrifice was worth it.

Cheers AFB. And it got me out from under the wife’s feet for a few hours. Really need to get into Snowdonia more often - only 80 minute drive. Problem is the queues on the roads to and from during much of the year.

Well next time your going give me a shout. It’s about 2 hours 20 minutes from here. Too far for sunrise though!

While shooting an artsy project, we just started flipping the hair and a few fun photos came out.
Nikon D850 / 24-70mm / studio flashes.

I'm not quite sure on whether this is a Thrush or a Thornbill of some kind, it's the curved end of the beak that has me confused here. Apparently there are some hybrid birds in this area where I captured this image & this may be the result of such interbreeding!

Definitely too early for sunrise although my daughter's boyfriend went up Snowdon for sunrise in the summer - left home at 4:30 am! If I can organise myself in advance I'll give you a shout - be good to meet up.

Nice. I prefer yesterday’s composition. I’ve got up that early in the past, but it’s never my ideal!
