-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ C O R A L - P E R S P E C T I V E ------------------------------------------------------------------ I almost forgot to post this one. A quick dash to Caernarfon Castle last week to capture this amber sunset forming on the horizon.  ----------------------------------------------------------------- #castellcaernarfon #findyourepic #DiscoverCymru #getoutside #yourwales #thewalescollective #snowdoniagram #northwalestagram #castlesuk #bbcearth #cymru #ig_today #visitwales #thisiscymru #northwalestagram  #globalcapture #snowdoniagram  #CaptureWales #djiglobal #hikingdestinations #ExploreWales #beautifuldestinations #ukpotd
-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ S A H A R A - S T R E A M  (-> swipey post ->) ------------------------------------------------------------------ I have never really been one for shooting in the middle of the day, especially midd heatwave. Generally you are dealing with harsh light, no contrast, and bland cloudless sky. But the Sahara dust brought some interesting mist and strange cloud formations resulting in this dramatic scene. I sat around for the best part of three hours watching the sun rays dance amongst the rugged landscape of Cwm Glass. Made a change to find such a moody landscape in 28 degrees heat. I guess the lesson learnt here is never leave the camera at home as you never know what you might find. ----------------------------------------------------------------- #cwmglas#findyourepic #discovercymru #getoutside #yourwales #thewalescollective #snowdoniagram #earth_shotz #artofvisuals #bbcearth #roamtheplanet #ig_today #visitwales #exceptional_pictures #northwalestagram  #globalcapture #snowdoniatagram  #welivetoexplore #earthpix #hikingdestinations #master_shots #your_wales #ukpotd
-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ H I G H - S E A S O N - C L O G G Y  ------------------------------------------------------------------ This iconic cliff face "Clogwyn Du'r Arddu" rich in climbing history, has been on my image wishlist for some time. I rarely go up the Llanberis path, as a photographer I tend to avoid the crowds. This image was captured a couple weeks ago whilst guiding a group for a Wyddfa moonlight summit walk for @mountainwalks. We took a breather and were rewarded with this amazing array of warm hues just before the clouds settled in for the night. ----------------------------------------------------------------- #clogwyndurarddu#findyourepic #discovercymru #getoutside #wales #thewalescollective #snowdonia #earth_shotz #artofvisuals #bbcearth #roamtheplanet #ig_today #visitwales #exceptional_pictures #northwalestagram  #globalcapture #snowdoniatagram  #welivetoexplore #earthpix #hikingdestinations #master_shots #beautifuldestinations #ukpotd
---------------------------------- FORESHADOWING - ---------------------------------- FORESHADOWING -MOON ---------------------------------- A late evening watching the waxing Crescent Moon guiding the busy shores behind South Stack lighthouse. Nice to revisit a well photographed location with fresh eyes. Blown away with the new Ai denoise in Lightroom, game changer. ---------------------------------- #southstack #findyourepic #discovercymru #getoutside #wales #thewalescollective #snowdonia #earth_shotz #artofvisuals #bbcearth #roamtheplanet #ig_today #visitwales #exceptional_pictures #northwalestagram  #globalcapture #snowdoniatagram  #welivetoexplore #lighthouse #ynysmon #master_shots #findyourepic #ukpotd
-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ A L P E N G L O W ------------------------------------------------------------------ Just over a week ago I was up on Craig Cwmsilyn and witnessed this amazing sunset, I had never envisioned that you could see Arenig fawr capturing the evening sun some 22 miles away on the horizon. When the red hues gradually painted the landscape I couldn't believe what was quickly unraveling. It felt like a scene from the Pyrenees except that I had found this on my doorstep. Not a soul in sight, I had the whole Nantlle ridge to myself.  As many will know, I decided against making a calendar this year so that I could focus on capturing new content for next year which I'm looking forward to share with you. (I can confirm that the calendars will resume for 2024).  Thanks to everyone who have supported me throughout the year, (buying prints / liking / sharing my content). Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!☃️ Nadolig Llawen a Blwyddyn Newydd Dda! ☃️ ----------------------------------------------------------------- #nantlleridge #eryri #craigcwmsilyn #findyourepic #discovercymru #getoutside #wales #thewalescollective #snowdonia #earth_shotz #artofvisuals #bbcearth #roamtheplanet #ig_today #visitwales #exceptional_pictures #northwalestagram  #globalcapture #snowdoniatagram  #welivetoexplore #earthpix #hikingdestinations #master_shots #beautifuldestinations #ukpotd #yourwales
-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ H I B E R N A L - S U N ------------------------------------------------------------------ Sunday evening I witnessed some of the best pastel lit ridges I've ever seen. The warm hues from Craig Cwm Silyn lasted a good 10 minutes before the sun finally sunk under the cloudy horizon behind. Nothing beats these views of Y Wyddfa in its winter cape. ----------------------------------------------------------------- #nantlleridge #findyourepic #discovercymru #getoutside #wales #thewalescollective #snowdonia #earth_shotz #artofvisuals #bbcearth #roamtheplanet #ig_today #visitwales #exceptional_pictures #northwalestagram  #globalcapture #snowdoniatagram  #welivetoexplore #earthpix #hikingdestinations #master_shots #beautifuldestinations #ukpotd
--------------------------------- F R A N C O N - --------------------------------- F R A N C O N - E Q U I N O X --------------------------------- The final sun set before the winter equinox captured hidden under a sechluded tree over looking the Nant francon valley, with the Glyderau mountain range towering the distant horizon. It's been a wet and windy couple of weeks meaning little to none photography, but the temps are certainly droping so with any luck snow might be on it's way🤞. --------------------------------- #nantfrancon #ogwenvalley #northwalestagram #visitwales #visitnorthwales #hikingdestinations #treebrilliance #ukpotd #discovercymru #findyourepic #landscapephotography #photooftheday #snowdonia #earth_shotz #artofvisuals #bbcearth #roamtheplanet #ig_today #visitwales #exceptional_pictures #northwalestagram  #globalcapture

A different perspective on a secluded corner of Snowdonia. Following the miserable weather we've had these last couple weeks you can almost feel the glow of warmth casting across the ridges. -------------------------------- #nantlleridge #findyourepic #discovercymru #getoutside #wales #thewalescollective #snowdonia #earth_shotz #artofvisuals #bbcearth #roamtheplanet #ig_today #visitwales #exceptional_pictures #northwalestagram  #globalcapture #depthsofearth #welivetoexplore #earthpix #hikingdestinations #master_shots #beautifuldestinations #ukpotd
