Mini Landscapes




Three more pictures today from my early morning walk around the marine lake.  At first glance the rocks in these pools were fairly dull and uninteresting but as I took a few paces along the sand and looked back I noticed how the morning sun had turned the rocks to a beautiful warm golden colour and the reflections in the still pools gave a sense of a big landscape in miniature.  Getting low down to get the right angle and they take on a new dimension.  My favourite image here is the second one. Leave a comment to let me know what you think.

Also remember to share the facebook link and/or retweet to enter the draw.  Today is the last chance as I will be drawing the winner tomorrow and announcing who it is in tomorrow's post.  It could be you!

Y Garn and Foel Goch





Today's images are of Y Garn, which at 947m is the third highest of the Glyderau, also showing in the first and third images is  Foel Goch which reaches a height of 831m.  These were taken facing west from the slopes of Tryfan on the walk up to Llyn Idwal.  I didn't take the normal path up but having stopped to take the pictures of the waterfall in yesterdays blog I forged my own path over the boggy ground following the stream part way and then heading over a low crest to reach the view in the last of the pictures above.

Tomorrow I will post some more pictures from further along the way, but lets not get ahead of ourselves and just pause to appreciate the view.  

I think later on in the season I will head up here again when there is snow on the ground, I will expect some really stunning images then
