out and about - 2013

05 December 2013 .............. Wild wild weather

A very windy day, and some wild seas around Porth Dafarch, and up the coast past Dinas Stack, Penrhyn Mawr, and into Abrahams Bosom.

A combination of the wild weather and a high tide resulted in Porth Dafarch looking a bit different from usual.

Heading around the coast now and looking down on the wild seas attacking a rock -

Before heading further round past Dinas Stack, a rather grey look back across to Treaddur Bay -

A bit along the coast, and a view back to Dinas Stack, with the big seas ponding into the caves and arches -

Very rough conditions at Penrhyn Mawr -

I don`t think any chickens will be using the chicken run - huge surges were crashing through it.

Past Penrhyn Mawr, and a couple of gullies full of foam and big wave surges.

As I headed along the next bit of the coast suddenly the sun broke through the grey clag and starting lighting up the world - what a difference.

This is looking down into the hidden channel at the back of the bay just past Penrhyn Mawr - more foam.

Just for a few minutes South Stack looked fabulous across the wild sea, before the sun dissappeared again.

Heading back now, and a good view right down to Rhoscolyn -

Weak sunshine lighting up Dinas Stack - what an amazing place.
