Llyn Gwynant Morning

Here are three more pictures from my trip to Llyn Gwynant in Snowdonia. We got up really early to get these shots and walked further round the shore than on the previous evening. There was a bit of a breeze and the low cloud blew slowly through the valley helping to create these dramatic images.  

I really love being in the mountains and to be out at a time when most people are sleeping to watch the sun rise and see the changing colours on the hillsides.  I often look at pictures of far off places I would love to visit but these photos remind me that we have so many beautiful places so close to home and I am grateful to have the opportunity to get out and see them and of course to photograph them to share with you...

Evening at Llyn Gwynant

These pictures were taken in July 2013 on a camping trip with my youngest son.  We stayed at the Llyn Gwynant Campsite near Beddgelert under the shadow of Snowdon.

This was a great trip with some good photo opportunities.  We really enjoyed the evening walking along the shore of the lake taking pictures, the only downside was the mass of mosquitoes along the waters edge.  

The above photos were taken in the evening the last one around 8.30pm.  The following morning we got up early to get some pictures of the sun rise and tomorrow I will post a couple of those.
